Help Alyssa replace the rear axle and return to work
Alyssa drives for a living in Bristol, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 3 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,550. 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 1 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 $1,550 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,100
• Labor charges: $220
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $105
• Towing and inspection: $125
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Bristol
Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Houston
Praying for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings
Sending strength. Hope you get there. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Tarkwa but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Tarkwa.
hope it all works out, Alyssa. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
