Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Seema in Dwarka
The roof at Seema's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a single mother of three living in Dwarka. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $310, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over one long 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Manila!
So sorry you're going through this, Seema. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you. Love from Pune
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Reims.
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Toronto.
