I make my living with my taxi. 7 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,050. 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 two daughters and my mother. 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 $2,050 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $1,400
• Labor charges: $300
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $270
• Towing and inspection: $80
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
