So today, 8-8-25, I was driving and the next thing you know, the front tire had a complete blowout. I was over the curb and into a concrete wall. Traffic had just started moving because we were at the light waiting for it to turn green. I was doing about 25 mph because the light had just turned green. I was in the right lane, and the lady in the left lane said all she heard was a pop. Next thing you know, my car turned, went up on the curb, hit the wall, and I cracked it to come back to the street. She said I looked her in the face; she was the passenger in her vehicle, but I assumed she had kids in the back, and I didn't want to hurt anybody, especially no kids. So, I took the steering wheel back to the wall and hit it again. They pulled over and came to check on me. The car is totaled, obviously, but nobody else was hurt, no other cars got hit, and for that, I am thankful.

Unfortunately, I just got that car out of the shop for $500, and it's the only car I had. Unfortunately, I still have to get to work, and now I'm without a vehicle and have two girls to raise, and school starts in 12 days. I'm not looking to get something I'd have to make payments on. Usually, I make things happen and do what needs to be done. But this time, I have to ask for help because I have people depending on me, and they mean more to me than my pride ever will. One day, I'll get my dream truck, but right now, I just need to get from point A to point B.

only reason I mentioned this is because I paid $5,000 cash what I had saved. I got a new roof done, and I also did my gutters like 2 years before I got the roof done! (Rain Drain 10/10, would recommend. I'll add pics)

In May, I saved everything for that. It's beautiful. But I was not ready for this. If you're in a position to help, thank you so, so much. Thank you! Sincerely,

Andrew Buckingham

All funds would be spent on the vehicle.
