I make my living with my school-run minibus. 6 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 ten 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 $500 goes:
• Labor charges: $250
• Towing and inspection: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $190
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Good luck, Eugene. It takes guts to ask. Well done!
Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Kasarani
Hope things get better soon, Eugene. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. After 22 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
thinking of you. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Sending love. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Greetings from Berlin.
