Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Novi in Depok
The roof at Novi's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a school janitor living in Depok. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $700, 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 4-6 people 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 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope it all works out, Novi. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
keep going, Novi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in 6th of October City but we're thinking of you.
