Get Diya back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Diya's my delivery van is Diya's only source of income and needs a rear axle replacement costing $1,500.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom2,113 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,500. 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 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $1,500 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $940
• Labor charges: $320
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $120
• Towing and inspection: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Montpellier
Rooting for you, Diya. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't give up. God bless.
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Odesa.
I hope things turn around soon. After 6 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
