Help Karthik patch the roof before the rainy season

The roof at Karthik's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

Prayagraj
I'm a single mother of three living in Prayagraj. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $480, which isn't something I can pay. The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

    Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Agra.
