Help Emilia patch the roof before the autumn rains
The roof at Emilia's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇷🇴 București, București, Romania559 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in București. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,100, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Emilia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Regensburg.
Thinking of you, Emilia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Brooklyn this morning.
