Kartika, a home-care aide, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Jakarta.
🇮🇩 Jakarta, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia472 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Jakarta. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $770, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Coyoacán but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Coyoacán.
