Rowena, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Angeles.

I'm a school janitor living in Angeles. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $810, 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 4-6 people 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 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Angeles.
Keep going, Rowena. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
Hope you get there. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from San Nicolás de los Garza.
hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Angeles
Take care. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. After 20 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
