Help Willem with an electrician's skills: a leaking gas line
Willem has a leaking gas line, and can't 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 leaking gas line. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $300 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 $40.
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.
Glad we found this place.

best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Savar.
Hope things get better soon, Willem. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
so sorry you're going through this, Willem. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Fresno but we're thinking of you. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Willem. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Wishing you the best, Willem. Shared it with a few friends!
