My school-run minibus: Madhavan's only way to earn a living
Without my school-run minibus Madhavan can't work; a $100 repair would put him back on the road.

Update from New Delhi: the plan for towing and inspection is now scheduled. We're at 94% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Madhavan

Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of New Delhi.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Madhavan?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about towing and inspection, advice is welcome too. Ask me anything else.
You're not alone. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope it all works out, Madhavan. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours.
Good luck, Madhavan. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Regensburg!
wishing you the best, Madhavan. Hope you get there. Greetings from Kaduna.
