Two weekends of roof repair for Pavel, a school janitor in Moscow
The roof at Pavel's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Moscow, Russia692 views
I'm a school janitor living in Moscow. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,200, 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 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 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

best of luck. Hope you get there. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Narayanganj
Wishing you peace, Pavel. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Moscow.
sending good thoughts, Pavel. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Nagpur so I could bring a meal.
