I make my living with my school-run minibus. 5 weeks ago the fuel pump 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 3 children. 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: โ€ข Towing and inspection: $10 โ€ข fuel pump replacement (parts): $175 โ€ข Labor charges: $65 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
