Help Asher patch the roof before the monsoon
The roof at Asher's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Scranton. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,000, 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 anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Shared this with my family. After 25 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Dasmari帽as
