Help Luca patch the roof before the next storm
The roof at Luca's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a home-care aide living in Fresno. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,550, 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 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.
Thank you so much.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Fresno
Looking forward to the next update. Love from Tokyo.
Thinking of you, Luca. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Stockholm donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Stockholm.
Rooting for you, Luca. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Thane.
Sending love, Luca. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't give up.
You're not alone, Luca. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Chiang Mai.
