Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out today with a difficult ask — I need your help.

My car, which I rely on daily for work, errands, and life in general, has recently suffered a major engine failure. After getting it inspected by a trusted mechanic, I've learned that I need a full engine replacement. The total cost, including labor and parts, is $10,500.

Unfortunately, this is not something I can afford on my own right now. Some have suggested ditching the car and getting a new one. However, I got the car in November and am still making car payments.

This car is more than just transportation. It's how I get to work, keep appointments, and stay connected with the people and responsibilities that matter most. Without it, I'm facing serious disruptions to my daily life and income.

If you're able to donate anything — no matter how small — it would mean the world. And if you can't give right now, I completely understand — even just sharing this page would be a huge help.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can offer. I'm hopeful that with your kindness, I'll be back on the road soon.

With gratitude,

Phil
