Get Marcel back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund
Without my school-run minibus Marcel can't work; a $1,150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 5 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,150. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $680
• Labor charges: $270
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $140
• Towing and inspection: $60
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck, Marcel. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Jerusalem but we're thinking of you
