Duisburg

I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $750. 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 twelve 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 $750 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $400 • Labor charges: $100 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $145 • Towing and inspection: $105 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Vanessa

Update from Duisburg: we've started the first stage. We're at 53% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
We're at 46% thanks to 5 of you. the first invoice got paid this week. More news soon.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($271 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
