Roofing help wanted: Alejandro's home in Tallahassee
The roof at Alejandro's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a home-care aide living in Tallahassee. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,700, 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 a small crew 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. All the best
good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Mumbai.
Take care, Alejandro. Hope you get there. Take care
Thinking of you, Alejandro. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
