I make my living with my pickup. 12 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $500 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Labor charges: $85
• suspension replacement (parts): $400
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Praying for you. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Jaffna.
