Get Barbara back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Barbara drives for a living in Salerno, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 8 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $850. 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 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 $850 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $540
• Labor charges: $210
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $100
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Kelowna.
How is Barbara doing now?
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Stay strong. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Barbara. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Hope you make a strong comeback. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of Salerno.
