Get Ife back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Without my delivery van Ife can't work; a $200 repair would put her back on the road.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria1,182 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 3 weeks ago the rear axle 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 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 $200 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $95
• Labor charges: $45
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $30
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
