I'm a 60-Year-Old Woman & Optimist. I Can't Afford to Repair My Car, & I'll Lose My Job!

My Story:

I am a single 60-year-old woman with no children and no family nearby. I am employed and an eternal optimist. I have had difficulties and challenges the last few years, but I'm extremely grateful to be here and enjoying life.

After 20 wonderful years, my old car needs a repair so that it passes inspection. I make just enough to pay my bills, so this expense is not something I can afford. I need my car to drive to my job, which is 20 miles away. I have been trying to cut back on groceries, subscriptions, and anything unnecessary, but I'm worried about losing my job before I can afford the repairs.

I am asking for your help with the repairs my car needs. I can't drive around with it right now because if I get stopped by the police, a ticket would just be an additional expense. This act of kindness will not only result in me keeping my job but also taking good care of myself. Thank you so much!
