Get Regina back on the road: my pickup repair fund
Regina's my pickup is Regina's only source of income and needs a radiator and cooling system replacement costing $300.

I make my living with my pickup. 7 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $300 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $220
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $35
I hope life is good to you.

Good news. Because of your gifts ($170 in total) I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of São Paulo.
Wishing you peace. Hope you make a strong comeback. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope this works out for you. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Love from Mumbai.
