Help Leonardo replace the gearbox and return to work
Leonardo's my ride-share car is Leonardo's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $1,200.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,200. 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 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 four 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 $1,200 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $740
• Labor charges: $220
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $120
• Towing and inspection: $120
With deep gratitude,
Leonardo

Keep going, Leonardo. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Liverpool
Hope you get there. Sent it to 15 people at work. Take care
Good luck. Small businesses are the heart of Liverpool. Hope you're open again soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Take care!
Good luck. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Keep going, Leonardo. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out.

Sending love, Leonardo. Shared it with a few friends. Take care
thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
praying for you, Leonardo. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Good luck, Leonardo. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
