My taxi: Emery's only way to earn a living

Without my taxi Emery cannot work; a $1,350 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 8 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,350. 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $1,350 goes: • suspension replacement (parts): $910 • Labor charges: $195 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $170 • Towing and inspection: $75 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Emery
