Two weekends of roof repair for Kofi, a disabled veteran in Madina
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Madina?
🇬🇭 Madina, Greater Accra, Ghana1,308 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Madina. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $500, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over two Saturdays.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

you're not alone, Kofi. Shared this with my family. After 20 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Sherbrooke
Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Dammam.
