A licensed HVAC technician to fix a dangerous fault at Akinyi's home in Mombasa
Akinyi has a failed boiler with no heating, and can't afford a licensed HVAC technician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In June an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $180 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed HVAC technician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $15.
The job should take about four hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a HVAC technician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 19 people at work. Thinking of Mombasa.
You're not alone, Akinyi. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
this could happen to any of us. Love from Zaporizhzhia.
Sending good thoughts, Akinyi. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 15 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything
