Help Inès with an electrician's skills: a failed boiler with no heating
Inès has a failed boiler with no heating, and cannot afford a licensed electrician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,200 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed electrician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $140.
The job should take about eight 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 an electrician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Good luck. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 31 people at work
sending strength, Inès. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Hauts-de-France. I'll ask around and let you know.
