Get Kaylee back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund
Kaylee's my school-run minibus is Kaylee's only source of income and needs a fuel pump replacement costing $750.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 3 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $750. 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 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 $750 goes:
• Labor charges: $195
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $460
• Towing and inspection: $95
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you, Kaylee. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
Small businesses are the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne. Hope you're open again soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless
hang in there, Kaylee. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
Sending strength, Kaylee. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up.
So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Casablanca.
stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
