I'm a retired bus driver living in Mumbai. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $420, 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 4-6 people 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending good thoughts. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Nashik donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Rooting for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
sending love, Haritha. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
