Daniela needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Rome
Daniela drives for a living in Rome, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $950. 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 four 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 $950 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $720
• Towing and inspection: $35
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $195
Thank you for reading my story.
