Is there a HVAC technician who can donate a few hours in Curitiba?
Amanda 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 elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $630 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 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 HVAC technician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Glad we found this place.

Sending love, Amanda. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 20 people at work. All the best.
Stay strong. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 12 people at work.
Praying for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. It's not much but it's yours
Hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. After 17 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
