Aline, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Duque de Caxias.

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Duque de Caxias. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $970, 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 three or four volunteers 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

You're not alone, Aline. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Lucknow this morning.
thanks for sharing this, Aline. Hope you get there. My husband and I read this together. All the best.
Praying for you, Aline. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
