Is there a gas fitter who can donate a few hours in Mandaue?
Michelle has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms, and cannot afford a licensed gas fitter to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In May an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $290 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Stay strong, Michelle. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Michelle. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mandaue.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
