Help Isabela replace the radiator and cooling system and return to work
Isabela drives for a living in Ribeirão Preto, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 10 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $200 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Labor charges: $120
• Towing and inspection: $25
I hope life is good to you.

praying for you. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Addis Ababa but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Rooting for you, Isabela. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 17 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Kingston.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Ciudad de México this morning. Thinking of Ribeirão Preto.
