Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Oleksandr in Moscow
Oleksandr, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Moscow.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Moscow. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $870, 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 three or four volunteers 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going, Oleksandr. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
Best of luck, Oleksandr. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
