Two weekends of roof repair for Nikhil, a single mother of three in Mysuru

The roof at Nikhil's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

Mysuru
I'm a single mother of three living in Mysuru. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $520, 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 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 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. Glad we found this place.

    Sending love, Nikhil. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Mysuru.
