Help Jocelyn replace the rear axle and return to work
Without my food truck Jocelyn can't work; a $2,000 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,000. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $2,000 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,500
• Labor charges: $230
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $210
• Towing and inspection: $60
Thanks for reading all this.
