Jorge needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Bucaramanga
Without my school-run minibus Jorge can't work; a $100 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 12 weeks ago the rear axle 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Labor charges: $65
• Towing and inspection: $5
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
