Get Bernd back on the road: my pickup repair fund

Bernd drives for a living in Berlin, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 4 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,200. 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $1,200 goes: • Labor charges: $195 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $250 • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $755 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Bernd
