Nadia needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Dnipro

Without my delivery van Nadia can't work; a $250 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 6 weeks ago the engine head gasket 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $250 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $125 • Labor charges: $55 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $40 • Towing and inspection: $30 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • hope you make a strong comeback. After 21 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

    • So sorry you're going through this, Nadia. Small businesses are the heart of Dnipro. Hope you're open again soon. Love from Gwagwalada

      • Sending love, Nadia. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.

        • Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Dnipro

          • Thinking of you and your family. Hope the shop reopens soon. Greetings from Lagos

            • Thinking of you and your family, Nadia. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

              • hope it all works out, Nadia. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
