Roofing help wanted: Fadi's home in Heliopolis
Fadi, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Heliopolis.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Heliopolis. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $370, 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 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
