Marta needs my school-run minibus repaired to get back to work in Alcalá de Henares
Without my school-run minibus Marta cannot work; a $800 repair would put her back on the road.
🇪🇸 Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, Spain574 views
I make my living with my school-run minibus. 6 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $800. 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 eleven 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 $800 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $360
• Labor charges: $290
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $150
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
