Angela needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Anaheim
Angela drives for a living in Anaheim, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 3 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 3 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,150. 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 eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $560
• Labor charges: $320
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $160
• Towing and inspection: $110
If you're reading this, thank you.

Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Orlando but we're thinking of you. All the best
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Anaheim.

keep going. Small businesses are the heart of Anaheim. Hope you're open again soon. Sent it to 27 people at work. Love from București.
Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Anaheim.
