Two weekends of roof repair for Gita, a widowed grandmother in Kathmandu
Gita, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Kathmandu.
🇳🇵 Kathmandu, Bagmati, Nepal82 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Kathmandu. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $480, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
