I'm a disabled veteran living in Abbottabad. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $660, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Junaid. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless
Thanks for sharing this, Junaid. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Brisbane so I could bring a meal
Thinking of you, Junaid. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did!
Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
