Roofer needed urgently: Sinta's home isn't safe
Sinta has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $340 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed roofer who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $20.
The job should take about three 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 roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for reading my story.

Stay strong, Sinta. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best

Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Rooting for you, Sinta. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Bonny.
Rooting for you, Sinta. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Magelang
