🌧️ Urgent Roof Repair Appeal: A Chance to Help and Give Back! 🌧️
Hello Generous Nostr friends! 👋
I’m reaching out with a humble and urgent request for help. I live in Sri Lanka, a country deeply affected by hyperinflation, economic collapse, and soaring living costs. Amidst these challenges, I am publishing a weekly nostr recap every Monday and I’ve been studying Bitcoin and working to orange-pill local people and merchants to create a circular Bitcoin economy. Although my efforts haven’t yet succeeded in convincing merchants to adopt Bitcoin, I’m committed to spreading awareness and making Bitcoin adoption a reality here.
Now, I face a personal crisis. My 100-year-old family home’s roof is on the verge of collapse. Every time it rains, leaks worsen, and I fear it won’t hold much longer. Repairs require $2016 (2.0M sats), a sum I cannot afford as I’m currently jobless. But some generous golden heart plebs helped me with around $47 (45k sats) via Nostr and Geyser. Now I need around $1969 (1.9M sats).
This home means more than just a shelter to me:
It’s a legacy of my family.
It houses the computer I use to contribute to the Bitcoin and Nostr communities - a gift from kind supporters that changed my life.
I previously used my Bitcoin savings and help from friends for temporary fixes, but the damage now demands a permanent solution.
🎁 What I Can Offer in Return 🎁
I believe in Value for Value, not just asking for help. To contribute free and open to the community:
I create a Nostr Weekly Recap every Monday, summarizing key events and updates for plebs, and I’m committed to continuing this work. My latest nostr recap - https://njump.me/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqt0ql7s2cg6l7306fn9egnxn7vlhnl6ay870jhcplx23dwmtkukvqqs0xna7zmykxkv03zwp3hdu73vkhn5q4d4cwz424q6uq47ufwz377qk2z4d4
I am actively working to orange-pill local people and merchants to introduce them to Bitcoin and its benefits.
I have already contributed to Bitcoin FOSS wallets by bounties by translating BlueWallet - https://app.transifex.com/bluewallet/bluewallet/language/si_LK/ and the Alby browser extension - https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/getalby-lightning-browser-extension/getalby-lightning-browser-extension/si/ into Sinhala, my native language.
I hope to contribute even more to Bitcoin projects in the future.
Your help doesn’t have to be financial.
Zap what you can afford - even the smallest amount makes a difference.
Share this appeal to spread the word.
Offer job opportunities or suggestions to help me get back on my feet.
🚀 Together, we can restore my home and ensure I continue to create, learn, and contribute. Your support could save my home and my future. 💛
Thank you for reading and for being part of this amazing community. 🙏
