Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Paul in Ibadan
The roof at Paul's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇳🇬 Ibadan, Oyo, Nigeria733 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Ibadan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $830, 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 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
You're not alone, Paul. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless
