Rahma needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Alexandria
Rahma drives for a living in Alexandria, and a broken engine head gasket has stopped all income for 5 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 5 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $20
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $70
With deep gratitude,
Rahma

stay strong. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Rahma. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Alexandria
