Zagazig
I'm a single mother of three living in Zagazig. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $440, 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 three weekday mornings. 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. Thank you so much.

    You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Zagazig.

      you're not alone, Dalia. Looking forward to the next update. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
