Abril needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Monterrey

Abril drives for a living in Monterrey, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 12 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $450. Without the vehicle I earn nothing. I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask. I support my wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $450 goes: • rear axle replacement (parts): $350 • Towing and inspection: $55 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $45 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Abril

Updates from Abril

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($294 in total) I made the first payment toward rear axle replacement. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $364 raised so far (81%). I made the first payment toward towing and inspection. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
