Bornova
I'm a home-care aide living in Bornova. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,150, 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 anyone handy 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. Glad we found this place.

  • hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Bornova

    • Praying for you, Sibel. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 26 people at work. God bless.

      • So sorry you're going through this, Sibel. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.

        • Sending good thoughts. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My neighbor in Howrah donated after I showed her your page

          • Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Tokyo.

            • rooting for you, Sibel. It takes guts to ask. Well done
