Erdem needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Çankaya
Erdem drives for a living in Çankaya, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 6 weeks ago the rear axle 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $200 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $70
• Labor charges: $100
• Towing and inspection: $30
I hope life is good to you.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Erdem?
Thank you. If you're in Çankaya I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.
Wishing you the best, Erdem. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Erdem.
Road tax and insurance renewal is $70 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Hope you get there. Sent it to 14 people at work. God bless.
Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Çankaya.
Wishing you peace, Erdem. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Erdem. Shared this with my family.
