Two weekends of roof repair for Vera, a school janitor in Moscow
The roof at Vera's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Moscow, Russia976 views
I'm a school janitor living in Moscow. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom 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 tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people 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 to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Please keep us posted. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City.
keep going, Vera. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Bristol.
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Iztapalapa so I could bring a meal. Take care.
