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

I'm a retired bus driver living in Los Angeles. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,650, 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 a small crew 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 work boots and a hat. 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.
