Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Ana in Maringá
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Maringá?
🇧🇷 Paraná, Brazil438 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Maringá. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $950, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers who can help over a weekend.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

stay strong, Ana. Hope you get there. Love from Lansing.
Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Dar es Salaam.
Sending strength, Ana. Your post was clear and honest
So sorry you're going through this, Ana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Maringá.
Rooting for you, Ana. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
Sending love, Ana. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
Sending love, Ana. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Ana. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Sending strength, Ana. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out

Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Machakos.
Thinking of you, Ana. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 12 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Sending love, Ana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
