Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Gloria in Toronto
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Toronto?
🇨🇦 Ontario, Canada398 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Toronto. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,350, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending good thoughts, Gloria. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Rabat.

shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Thane.
Best of luck. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Pune
