Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Meena in Hubballi
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Hubballi?
๐ฎ๐ณ Hubballi, Karnataka, India685 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Hubballi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $690, 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 anyone handy who can help over a 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

wishing you the best. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
so sorry you're going through this, Meena. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Meena. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
sending strength. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Keep going, Meena. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.
