Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Zoya in Moscow
Zoya, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Moscow.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Russia491 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Moscow. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,400, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Zoya. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Moscow.
