Jorge needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Veracruz
Jorge drives for a living in Veracruz, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $300 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $125
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $75
• Towing and inspection: $45
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Jorge. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Veracruz
Hope the shop reopens soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings
Wishing you peace, Jorge. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 10 people at work. Thinking of Veracruz.
Thinking of you and your family, Jorge. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
Sending good thoughts, Jorge. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Love from Cebu City.
Hope things get better soon. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Mississauga.
Hang in there, Jorge. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
