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

I make my living with my food truck. 3 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $250 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $130
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $30
Thank you so much.
