I'm a night-shift nurse living in Pretoria. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,050, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy 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.
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there, Zola. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't give up. Thinking of Pretoria.
Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Take care
wishing you peace, Zola. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Gwangju!
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Kyiv but we're thinking of you. God bless
