Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Ankara?

I'm a disabled veteran living in Ankara. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,200, 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 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 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 so much.
