Help Mohit patch the roof before the monsoon
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Thane?
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India728 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Thane. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $510, 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 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Dhaka.
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
good luck. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Thrissur.
Sending strength, Mohit. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best!
praying for you, Mohit. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Rohini this morning. Take care
Hope things get better soon, Mohit. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.
Rooting for you, Mohit. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Casablanca this morning. God bless.
keep going, Mohit. Hope this works out for you. Take care
Best of luck, Mohit. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
Thinking of you, Mohit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted. Take care
This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to A Coruña so I could bring a meal. Take care
Hang in there, Mohit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
