I'm a home-care aide living in Cần Thơ. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $950, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Berlin.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Birmingham donated after I showed her your page. Love from Birmingham.
Wishing you the best, Thủy. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thanks for sharing this, Thủy. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
