Help Hakan replace the fuel pump and return to work
Hakan's my school-run minibus is Hakan's only source of income and needs a fuel pump replacement costing $1,000.
🇳🇱 Netherlands1,945 views
I make my living with my school-run minibus. 10 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,000. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Labor charges: $310
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $570
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Hakan?
Thank you. If you're in Amsterdam I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Thanks for sharing this. Small businesses are the heart of Amsterdam. Hope you're open again soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Dundee.
Thanks for sharing this, Hakan. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Quezon City this morning. God bless.
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Best of luck, Hakan. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Amsterdam.
Thinking of you, Hakan. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
