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

In June an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $280 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed gas fitter 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 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 a gas fitter 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.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.
- Made me feel heard
I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

Rooting for you, Kevin. Hope this works out for you. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Quezon City.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 9 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.

Praying for you, Kevin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
