Help Geetha patch the roof before the monsoon
Geetha, a home-care aide, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Rajkot.

I'm a home-care aide living in Rajkot. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $690, 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 a small crew who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
Glad we found this place.

good luck, Geetha. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Rajkot.
Good luck, Geetha. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
You're not alone, Geetha. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
hang in there, Geetha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Rajkot.
Praying for you, Geetha. Hope you get there. God bless.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Tampa.
Rooting for you, Geetha. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Tel Aviv.
Wishing you the best, Geetha. Looking forward to the next update
Take care, Geetha. Shared this with my family. Don't give up. God bless.
