Hi, I'm Rina. I need to raise some funds to cover an unexpected car repair. This is my 2008 Saturn Vue. I named her Aunt Beast after the beloved character in one of my favorite books, A Wrinkle in Time.

Money is tight because I was out of work for a while. I applied to many, many jobs and was called for many interviews, but I just didn't land a job. Because of that, I built up credit card debt and am now in a debt relief program. So, I am unable to use any credit cards to pay for my car.

I have two jobs now, and I need my car for both. I work swing shift at a warehouse which is not easily reachable by public transportation. I also drive for a courier company, using my own vehicle.

My car needs a new radiator and thermostat. The repairs will total more than $1500. I only need that much to be able to pay for the repairs and also be able to pay my rent.

Thank you so much!
