Roofing help wanted: Mariana's home in Kansas City
Mariana, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Kansas City.

I'm a single mother of three living in Kansas City. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,400, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over two Saturdays.
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 hope life is good to you.

Take care, Mariana. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Tehuacán so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Latina
hope things get better soon, Mariana. Shared it with a few friends. Please keep us posted. All the best
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Kansas City.
