Two weekends of roof repair for Josephine, a widowed grandmother in Tucson
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Tucson?
🇺🇸 Arizona, United States670 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Tucson. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,200, 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 one long 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Take care, Josephine. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
