Help Gabriel patch the roof before the next storm
Gabriel, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Grenoble.

I'm a retired bus driver living in Grenoble. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,750, 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 three or four volunteers 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
