Two weekends of roof repair for Novi, a single mother of three in Jakarta Selatan

Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Jakarta Selatan?

Jakarta Selatan
I'm a single mother of three living in Jakarta Selatan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom 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 a small crew 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 sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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. Thank you so much.

      Thinking of you and your family, Novi. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
