Elif, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Gaziantep.
🇹🇷 Gaziantep, Türkiye578 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Gaziantep. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $600, 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 anyone handy who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Elif. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in San Diego but we're thinking of you. Greetings from San Diego
Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Gaziantep.
Good luck, Elif. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything
