I'm a retired bus driver living in Hialeah. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,750, 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 three weekday mornings.
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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

thinking of you, Taghreed. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Kandy.
Wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
Sending strength, Taghreed. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Shinjuku this morning. Take care.
Wishing you the best. Hope you get there. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
