Beau needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Denver
Without my delivery van Beau can't work; a $2,350 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 6 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,350. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $2,350 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,550
• Labor charges: $390
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $230
• Towing and inspection: $180
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Praying for you, Beau. Small businesses are the heart of Denver. Hope you're open again soon
Sending strength, Beau. Hope you make a strong comeback. Love from Macon!
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Duluth
Thanks for sharing this, Beau. Shared it with a few friends.
Thinking of you, Beau. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
