Two weekends of roof repair for Paul, a single mother of three in Spanish Town
Paul, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Spanish Town.
🇯🇲 Saint Catherine, Jamaica963 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Spanish Town. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,300, 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 three or four volunteers 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 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending love, Paul. Gave what I could, wish it was more
hope this works out for you. After 16 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Da Nang donated after I showed her your page.
Good luck. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Dallas
best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. All the best
Wishing you the best, Paul. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
