Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Saga in Stockholm
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Stockholm?
🇸🇪 Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden1,434 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Stockholm. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $5,750, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

You're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. Don't give up. God bless
Rooting for you, Saga. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Good luck. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. After 6 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Fresno.
thinking of you, Saga. Hope you get there. Sent it to 8 people at work. Love from Quezon City
This could happen to any of us. After 26 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
Wishing you the best. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Stockholm.
Rooting for you, Saga. This could happen to any of us. I hope March is when things finally get easier.
looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Takoradi but we're thinking of you. All the best
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My husband and I read this together. Blessings!
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto.
praying for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care.
Sending good thoughts, Saga. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!
Praying for you, Saga. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did!
Stay strong. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Mansoura this morning.
