Help Adrián replace the fuel pump and return to work

Adrián drives for a living in Tehuacán, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 6 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 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 $150 goes: • Towing and inspection: $25 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $65 • Labor charges: $60 Thank you so much.
