My delivery van: Aster's only way to earn a living

Without my delivery van Aster can't work; a $150 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 12 weeks ago the suspension 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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: • suspension replacement (parts): $105 • Labor charges: $15 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $25 • Towing and inspection: $5 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Aster
