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

In June an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,450 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 $185.
The job should take about four 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in La Plata donated after I showed her your page.

So sorry you're going through this, Ye-jin. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. God bless.

Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Busan.

I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Busan.
