Get Yvonne back on the road: my school-run minibus repair fund
Yvonne drives for a living in The Hague, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 8 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,250. 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 2 children. 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 $1,250 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $640
• Labor charges: $270
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $280
• Towing and inspection: $60
Thank you for reading my story.

Hang in there, Yvonne. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Sukkur but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near The Hague
Thank you. If you're in The Hague I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
rooting for you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
thinking of you, Yvonne. Hope you get there.
Rooting for you, Yvonne. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Chandler donated after I showed her your page. Love from Chandler.
