Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Halyna in Kyiv
Halyna, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Kyiv.
🇺🇦 Kyiv, Ukraine668 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Kyiv. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,150, 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 anyone handy who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Kyiv.
Sending strength, Halyna. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
