Andi needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Surabaya
Andi drives for a living in Surabaya, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 5 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 nine 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 $200 goes:
• Labor charges: $50
• Towing and inspection: $15
• suspension replacement (parts): $135
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
Updates from Andi
Wanted to say thank you properly. 87% funded and I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts.
Quick update: $130 raised so far (65%). I made the first payment toward towing and inspection. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Thank you all. We're at 55% now ($110). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Liverpool.
best of luck, Andi. Hope you get there. Don't give up.
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up
