Get Satish back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund

Without my school-run minibus Satish can't work; a $600 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 3 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $600. 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 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 $600 goes: • Road tax and insurance renewal: $125 • Towing and inspection: $170 • Labor charges: $305 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Satish
