Two weekends of roof repair for Vino, a widowed grandmother in Ubud
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Ubud?
🇮🇩 Bali, Indonesia248 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Ubud. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $360, 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 three or four volunteers 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 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you, Vino. This could happen to any of us.
Stay strong, Vino. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Ubud.
