Get Rory back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Rory's my delivery van is Rory's only source of income and needs a rear axle replacement costing $550.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $550. 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 twelve 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 $550 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $200
• Towing and inspection: $85
• Labor charges: $265
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thanks for sharing this, Rory. This could happen to any of us. God bless
Hope it all works out, Rory. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Rory. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together
hope you make a strong comeback. Don't give up. Thinking of Dublin.
wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings!
Praying for you, Rory. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted. God bless
you're not alone. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Dublin.
Shared it with a few friends. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Dublin.
sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
