Help Anton patch the roof before the next storm
The roof at Anton's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇸🇪 Stockholm, Sweden336 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Stockholm. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,200, 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 4-6 people 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
hope things get better soon, Anton. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
So sorry you're going through this, Anton. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
You're not alone. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Love from Birmingham.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We're a small family in Ankara but we're thinking of you. Love from Ankara
Sending strength, Anton. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
