Help Ben replace the suspension and return to work
Without my food truck Ben can't work; a $400 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 8 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $400. 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 ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $400 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $210
• Labor charges: $150
• Towing and inspection: $40
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Ben. This could happen to any of us. Take care
you're not alone, Ben. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Take care, Ben. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Cologne
