Help Luuk patch the roof before the rainy season
Luuk, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Amsterdam.

I'm a single mother of three living in Amsterdam. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,350, 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 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 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 5 people at work. Thinking of Amsterdam.
Best of luck. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
