Get Umesh back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Without my delivery van Umesh cannot work; a $350 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $350 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $240
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $25
Thank you for reading my story.
