I'm a retired bus driver living in Rajshahi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $510, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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 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 things get better soon, Runa. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Santos.
a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't give up. All the best
