I'm a widowed grandmother living in Toulon. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,900, 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 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 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thinking of you and your family, Maxime. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Ahmedabad donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Toulon.
Thanks for sharing this, Maxime. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Toulon
Hang in there. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Bristol.
Hang in there, Maxime. Your post was clear and honest!
Thinking of you and your family, Maxime. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Lagos but we're thinking of you
