Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Rowena in Santa Rosa
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Santa Rosa?

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Santa Rosa. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $730, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. After 30 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Santa Rosa.
Thanks for sharing this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up. All the best
Thinking of you and your family, Rowena. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Santos so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Santa Rosa
