I'm a home-care aide living in Orlando. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,450, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy 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 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Josiah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Praying for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Barranquilla this morning.
Sending love. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
