My school-run minibus: Khánh's only way to earn a living

Without my school-run minibus Khánh can't work; a $200 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 6 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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 $200 goes: • fuel pump replacement (parts): $130 • Labor charges: $40 • Towing and inspection: $30 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Khánh

      Hope the shop reopens soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Sukkur.

        you're not alone. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Badagry

        • Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.

          • Best of luck. Small businesses are the heart of Hồ Chí Minh City. Hope you're open again soon. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City
