Help Luis replace the rear axle and return to work
Luis drives for a living in Cologne, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 6 weeks ago the rear axle 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $1,000 goes:
• Labor charges: $310
• rear axle replacement (parts): $550
• Towing and inspection: $140
