🇹🇭 Bang Khen, Bangkok, Thailand1,333 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Bang Khen. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,100, 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 a small crew 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

stay strong, Busaba. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 11 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Gazipur but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Shared this with my family. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Davao City
You're not alone, Busaba. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Marrakesh but we're thinking of you. Love from Marrakesh
Praying for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 36 people at work. God bless.
wishing you the best. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Brisbane so I could bring a meal. All the best
Hang in there, Busaba. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
