Roofing help wanted: Payal's home in Wollongong

The roof at Payal's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

Wollongong
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Wollongong. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,250, 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 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 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.
