Help Tài replace the gearbox and return to work
Without my school-run minibus Tài can't work; a $100 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 10 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 4 children. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Labor charges: $40
Glad we found this place.

Best of luck. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
You're not alone. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Phuket so I could bring a meal. Love from Quezon City.
stay strong. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Albany.
Best of luck. Hope this works out for you. After 30 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Thủ Đức.
You're not alone, Tài. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Thủ Đức.
Shared it with a few friends. Love from Mohammedia
hang in there, Tài. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My husband and I read this together. Love from Wudil.
