Help Aadhya patch the roof before the next storm
Aadhya, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Mobile.

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Mobile. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,250, 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 a small crew who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thanks for sharing this, Aadhya. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Luxor this morning. Greetings from Luxor.
Stay strong, Aadhya. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Mobile.
Sending love, Aadhya. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
