Help Alice with a plumber's skills: dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms
Alice has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms, and cannot afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In August an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,700 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 $90.
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.
Thank you for reading my story.

hope things get better soon, Alice. Looking forward to the next update. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Take care, Alice. Shared this with my family
Hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
