Manoel needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Uberlândia
Manoel drives for a living in Uberlândia, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 12 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 nine 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 $350 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $35
• rear axle replacement (parts): $270
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace. Small businesses are the heart of Uberlândia. Hope you're open again soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Uberlândia.
Keep going, Manoel. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
