Roofing help wanted: Wellington's home in Campinas
The roof at Wellington's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a home-care aide living in Campinas. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,150, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over a 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.
Glad we found this place.

So sorry you're going through this, Wellington. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
