Kennedy needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Bristol
Kennedy drives for a living in Bristol, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 3 weeks.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 3 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,400. 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 family of five. 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $1,400 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $1,100
• Labor charges: $90
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $140
• Towing and inspection: $70
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thinking of you. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Mekelle.
Sending good thoughts. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Södertälje so I could bring a meal.
