Get Vandana back on the road: my delivery van repair fund

Without my delivery van Vandana can't work; a $200 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $200 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $120 • Labor charges: $60 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $15 • Towing and inspection: $5 Every share and every dollar helps. - Vandana

Updates from Vandana

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 28% funded and the plan for road tax and insurance renewal is now scheduled. - Vandana

  2. Thank you all. We're at 55% now ($110). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for labor charges is now scheduled.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($110 in total) I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
