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

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Marseille. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,800, 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 anyone handy 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Hang in there, Manon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
Keep going, Manon. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too!
Hope things get better soon, Manon. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
