Help Maryna patch the roof before the next storm
Maryna, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Kyiv.
🇺🇦 Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine730 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Kyiv. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $810, 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 4-6 people who can help over one long weekend.
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.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Berlin so I could bring a meal!
So sorry you're going through this, Maryna. Hope this works out for you. After 9 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Kyiv.
