Help Galina replace the radiator and cooling system and return to work
Without my ride-share car Galina can't work; a $250 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $250 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $165
• Towing and inspection: $30
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Take care. Hope the shop reopens soon. Thinking of Kyiv
Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Hang in there. Small businesses are the heart of Kyiv. Hope you're open again soon. We're a small family in Tokyo but we're thinking of you. God bless.
this could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Stockholm so I could bring a meal. Love from Fortaleza
You're not alone, Galina. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
