Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Vikas in Mumbai
Vikas, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Mumbai.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India430 views
I'm a school janitor living in Mumbai. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $370, 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 anyone handy 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.
