Help Zahid patch the roof before the rainy season

The roof at Zahid's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a retired bus driver living in Kochi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $320, 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 two Saturdays. 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
