I make my living with my delivery van. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $310. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $310 goes: • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $240 • Labor charges: $65 • Towing and inspection: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

        Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Albany

        • Praying for you, Joyce. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless!

          • hope it all works out. Hope you make a strong comeback. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Dwarka.
