Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Dinda in Yogyakarta
The roof at Dinda's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇮🇩 Yogyakarta, Yogyakarta, Indonesia107 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Yogyakarta. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $970, 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 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.
