Help Priscila patch the roof before the monsoon
The roof at Priscila's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, Brazil867 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in São Paulo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,800, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. 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 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you, Priscila. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Durban this morning. Take care.
You're not alone, Priscila. Looking forward to the next update. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
hope things get better soon, Priscila. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless!
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
wishing you peace, Priscila. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
