Two weekends of roof repair for Yulia, a widowed grandmother in Kyiv
The roof at Yulia's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Kyiv. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $920, 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 4-6 people who can help over three weekday mornings.
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 hope life is good to you.

thinking of you, Yulia. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Kano.
you're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
