Help Lorenzo patch the roof before the autumn rains
The roof at Lorenzo's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a single mother of three living in Girona. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,400, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew 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 sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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.

hope it all works out, Lorenzo. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Dublin.
Thinking of you and your family, Lorenzo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. God bless!
Wishing you peace, Lorenzo. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I hope June is when things finally get easier
Thinking of you, Lorenzo. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
