Emergency Roof Replacement From Wind Damage

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Hollie. Today I received a message from my neighbor while I was working. She sent me a picture and told me the wind took my roof off. I rushed home to find a huge mess and that my roof was indeed torn off. I own my home but have no home owners insurance. After I bought my house my insurance company the insurance company I go through told me that it wasn’t insurable due to the age of the home so this is 100% an out of pocket expense that is bigger than me as a single parent. The American red cross responded to my situation providing me with $515 in emergency funds. The fire department was out here and said that they will have to send the city out to inspect the damage and they told me they may deem it as unlivable until it can be repaired. If that happens I won’t be able to even stay here. With the damage that has currently been done from this wind storm I am looking at the possibility of having to completely rebuild this roof. I haven’t gotten a proper estimate as it will take time to get a roofing company out here but when I get a better estimate my financial needs might change. Right now I’m expecting to be facing some very large expenses not only for the repairs but to possibly keep Shelter or any other expenses that may arise during this time. I thank anyone who has taken the time to hear my story and thank anyone who may be able to help contribute to this emergency situation.
