Help Imelda replace the transmission and return to work

Without my food truck Imelda can't work; a $250 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the transmission 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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: β€’ Labor charges: $30 β€’ Road tax and insurance renewal: $30 β€’ transmission replacement (parts): $190 Thanks for being kind about this. - Imelda
