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

In September 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 $590 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 $45.
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 HVAC technician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Rio de Janeiro.
Thinking of you and your family, Isabela. This could happen to any of us. All the best.
Sending strength, Isabela. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Los Angeles
Take care, Isabela. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
rooting for you, Isabela. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 25 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
