Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Josiah in Sheffield

Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Sheffield?

Sheffield
I'm a disabled veteran living in Sheffield. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,000, 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 one long weekend. Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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. Thank you for reading my story.

          It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Rome donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Rome!

            Stay strong, Josiah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Mississauga so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Pune.
