Help Diana patch the roof before the rainy season
The roof at Diana's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇷🇺 Saint Petersburg, Russia1,839 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Saint Petersburg. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,400, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Rooting for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Ciudad de México
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
Keep going, Diana. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
take care, Diana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. Greetings from Multan.
So sorry you're going through this, Diana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Saint Petersburg.
Good luck, Diana. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours
Hope things get better soon, Diana. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Soweto so I could bring a meal.
