Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Manisha in Pune
Manisha, a home-care aide, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Pune.

I'm a home-care aide living in Pune. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $580, 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 a small crew 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.
Thank you so much.

Sending good thoughts, Manisha. Your post was clear and honest.
Sending strength, Manisha. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Thiruvananthapuram this morning.
Sending strength, Manisha. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
