Help Harsh patch the roof before winter
Harsh, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Mumbai.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India927 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Mumbai. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $630, 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 4-6 people 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Bursa donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Mumbai
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Quezon City
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Da Nang donated after I showed her your page.
praying for you, Harsh. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
so sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to El Paso so I could bring a meal!
thinking of you and your family, Harsh. Shared this with my family.
Keep going, Harsh. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
