Kojo needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Kumasi
Kojo drives for a living in Kumasi, and a broken engine head gasket has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $150 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $85
• Labor charges: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $20
Glad we found this place.

stay strong, Kojo. Hope you get there
Hope things get better soon, Kojo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings
Good luck, Kojo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings!
