We Live Paycheck to Paycheck, & We Need Help Covering Some Car Repairs!

My Story:

I'm a married home educator with a wonderful son, and we also live with our beloved golden Doodle Mix. For my husband and I, our family's happiness and well-being mean the world to us. Our son is an enthusiastic homeschooler who dedicates his time to volunteering for a Cat Charity twice a month. He has a deep love for his dog, enjoys video gaming, and dreams of becoming a baker. After graduating from a local career high school, his ultimate aspiration is to own a specialty pastry store. These dreams fill our hearts with joy, and we strive to support him every step of the way.

To sustain our family, my husband works diligently as a full-time delivery driver. However, our circumstances have presented us with a pressing need. Because our son is now a teenager learning to drive, having two operational vehicles has become a necessity. Unfortunately, my car has been in need of brake and rotor repairs for over four months, as confirmed by the diagnostics at our local dealer. While it is not a major issue, we have been unable to address it while living paycheck to paycheck, and if we pay for these repairs, we'll have to sacrifice other bills, trapping us in an inescapable cycle of poverty.

With that in mind, we're very humbly seeking assistance with these vehicle repairs. Currently, our financial situation is challenging, with my husband receiving biweekly paychecks that do not provide us with sufficient funds to cover the cost of these repairs. With this help though, we'll be able to get these repairs done, and we can keep our vehicle on the road for the foreseeable future. Thank you.
