Sun-hee, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Busan.

I'm a school janitor living in Busan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,450, 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 a small crew 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 to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you and your family. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Busan.

wishing you the best, Sun-hee. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings
Stay strong, Sun-hee. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too
rooting for you, Sun-hee. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Sukkur.
Good luck, Sun-hee. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Ottawa
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Busan.
so sorry you're going through this, Sun-hee. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
