Get Kim back on the road: my pickup repair fund
Kim drives for a living in Hồ Chí Minh City, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 7 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $150 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Towing and inspection: $25
• suspension replacement (parts): $85
I hope life is good to you.
