Roofing help wanted: Daniela's home in Milan
The roof at Daniela's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇮🇹 Lombardy, Italy257 views
I'm a school janitor living in Milan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,400, 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hang in there, Daniela. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in San Diego this morning. Greetings from San Diego.
thinking of you, Daniela. I hope things turn around soon
Sending strength, Daniela. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
