Get Dolores back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund
Dolores's my school-run minibus is Dolores's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $200.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 5 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $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 two daughters and my mother. 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 $200 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $60
• Labor charges: $90
• Towing and inspection: $50
Thank you so much.

So sorry you're going through this, Dolores. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from A Coruña.
Hang in there, Dolores. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Sakai donated after I showed her your page.
