Get Kehinde back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund
Without my school-run minibus Kehinde can't work; a $105 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $105. 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 nine 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 $105 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Labor charges: $60
• Towing and inspection: $5
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Update from Epe: I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. We're at 74% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
We're at 45% thanks to 1 of you. I made the first payment toward road tax and insurance renewal. More news soon.
