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

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Celaya. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $600, 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 anyone handy 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
