Is there a plumber who can donate a few hours in Hồ Chí Minh City?
A plumber is needed to repair faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning at the home of a family of 5.

In May an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $155 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed plumber who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $35.
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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.

Good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Berlin but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City.
Hope this works out for you. After 17 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in London this morning. Blessings.
so sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Rochester donated after I showed her your page. Take care

Wishing you the best, Thảo. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Sending strength. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
You're not alone, Thảo. Hope you get there.
