Two weekends of roof repair for Alina, a disabled veteran in Palermo
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Palermo?
🇮🇹 Sicily, Italy702 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Palermo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,450, 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 two Saturdays.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.

Rooting for you, Alina. Looking forward to the next update
So sorry you're going through this, Alina. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Zapopan
