Two weekends of roof repair for Sagar, a night-shift nurse in Bhaktapur
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Bhaktapur?
🇳🇵 Bhaktapur, Bagmati, Nepal1,123 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Bhaktapur. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $730, 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 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending love, Sagar. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
