Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Shun in Tokyo
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Tokyo?
🇯🇵 Tokyo, Japan1,478 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Tokyo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,200, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Shun. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Wish I lived closer to Málaga so I could bring a meal. Love from Winston-Salem.
