I'm a school janitor living in Lahore. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $370, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over a 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Aurora.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Lahore.
Sending love. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Imran. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Cape Town so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Bogotá
Best of luck, Imran. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Sacramento
Thinking of you, Imran. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Lahore
Take care, Imran. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Lahore.
thinking of you, Imran. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
