A licensed plumber to fix a dangerous fault at Lourdes's home in Envigado
Lourdes has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In October an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $520 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed plumber who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $25.
The job should take about six 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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hang in there, Lourdes. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Thinking of Envigado.
Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Santos but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
best of luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Take care. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Toledo
Rooting for you, Lourdes. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
