Two weekends of roof repair for Miguel, a disabled veteran in Grand Rapids
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Grand Rapids?
πΊπΈ Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States1,125 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Grand Rapids. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,150, 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 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
