Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Sophie in Toulouse
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Toulouse?
🇫🇷 Occitanie, France963 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Toulouse. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,750, 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 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending strength, Sophie. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Bangkok but we're thinking of you
Stay strong, Sophie. Hope this works out for you.
thinking of you and your family, Sophie. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Toulouse.
