Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Jose in Cebu City

Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Cebu City?

Cebu City
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Cebu City. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 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 roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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 work boots and a hat. 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.
