Get Thiago back on the road: my pickup repair fund
Thiago drives for a living in Brasília, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 12 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $400. 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 four 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 $400 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $230
• Labor charges: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $85
• Towing and inspection: $45
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
