Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Andrés in La Plata
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in La Plata?
🇦🇷 La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina980 views
I'm a home-care aide living in La Plata. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $480, 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

This could happen to any of us. Love from Islamabad.
hope it all works out. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 32 people at work. All the best!
Praying for you, Andrés. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
