Roofing help wanted: Jana's home in Stuttgart
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Stuttgart?

I'm a single mother of three living in Stuttgart. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,800, 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 a small crew who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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 hope life is good to you.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Sending love. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Dasmari帽as
Stay strong, Jana. It takes guts to ask. Well done
Sending love, Jana. I hope things turn around soon.
Keep going, Jana. This could happen to any of us.
Thinking of you, Jana. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We're a small family in Monterrey but we're thinking of you. Love from Monterrey.
Keep going, Jana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Awka donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
