Help Connor get his car repaired and keep working.
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Connor and I am a 22 year old single father. I live on my own and work very hard 12+ hours a day and 60-70 hours a week to support myself and my daughter. Due to the very high cost of living, I have resorted to doing delivery work using my car to make ends meet, as I am somehow making much more than I did as an automotive technician and even then I am still barely scraping by.
Unfortunately, 2024 decided it wanted to kick me down, and I am having major problems with my car now. It started with what I believe was an issue with my hydraulic system that is connected to both the clutch system and brake system. I have been having problems with my clutch pedal, and some braking issues here and there. Now, whatever issue I was having is now causing my clutch to slip as well. It could even be an issue with my input shaft bearing but I won’t know the exact problem until I bring the car in for diagnostics and repair.
What I do know is that this repair is well beyond anything I can afford right now. It is guaranteed that the transmission will need to be pulled and there is a good chance I will be needing a new clutch as a result of this problem. My warranty just expired last month, but I guess that’s how it goes ain’t it?
I absolutely hate asking for help like this, but I have no other options at this point. I’ve tried applying for credit cards and personal loans and got denied. I won’t be receiving any money this tax season either because I owe money this year since I am an independent contractor and Georgia has a large self employment tax.
No car means no job, which means no income, which means I will be unable to support myself or my daughter, which means losing my home and everything I have worked so hard for these last few years. I wouldn’t be making a GoFundMe unless it’s absolutely necessary and at this point if I don’t figure something out fast, everything I’ve worked so hard for will be gone.
You’re not required to donate, but everything helps and will be going directly towards getting my car torn apart, diagnosed, and repaired so that I can continue working hard and provide a good life for the most important person in my life, my daughter.
Love you all. And thank you.
