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

Without my school-run minibus Tania can't work; a $215 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 5 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $215. 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 nine 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 $215 goes: โ€ข fuel pump replacement (parts): $155 โ€ข Labor charges: $20 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $35 โ€ข Towing and inspection: $5 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
