Is there an electrician who can donate a few hours in Newport?
Josephine has a septic backup, 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 septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,600 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 $155.
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.
Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing this. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Abuja this morning. Love from Abuja.

Good luck, Josephine. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Hope it all works out, Josephine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Saint-Denis.
