Get Aurora back on the road: my food truck repair fund
Without my food truck Aurora can't work; a $1,400 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,400. 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 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $1,400 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $760
• Labor charges: $290
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $195
• Towing and inspection: $155
Thank you so much.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Aurora
Wishing you the best, Aurora. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Islamabad donated after I showed her your page. Take care

is there anything that isn't money that would help Aurora?
