I'm a home-care aide living in Ribeirão Preto. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $990, 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 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

take care, Juliana. Hope you get there.
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Kediri but we're thinking of you. All the best
Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Ribeirão Preto.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 27 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
