My delivery van: Kimani's only way to earn a living
Without my delivery van Kimani can't work; a $250 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 $250 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $10
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $195
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
Every share and every dollar helps.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you. God bless.
