Roofing help wanted: Vidya's home in Prayagraj

Vidya, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Prayagraj.

Prayagraj
I'm a retired bus driver living in Prayagraj. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $380, which isn't something I can pay. The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. 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 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 hope life is good to you.
