Yvonne needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Madina
Without my food truck Yvonne can't work; a $150 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 12 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $150 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Labor charges: $70
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $60
Thank you for reading my story.
