Two weekends of roof repair for Lucía, a school janitor in Iztapalapa
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Iztapalapa?
🇲🇽 Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico761 views
I'm a school janitor living in Iztapalapa. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,100, 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 a small crew who can help over a 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing you the best, Lucía. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Fresno
Sending strength, Lucía. Looking forward to the next update. God bless!
