Hello friends, family, and community! This Gofundme is for my best friend's son Animiki Nevilles to help him complete his automotive toolkit purchases. Ani is a remarkable young man who recently graduated from Dunwoody College of Technology with an Associate's Degree in Applied Science Automotive Service Technology. In order to work in his field he needs to have an automotive toolkit. He's been working to buy his tools and could use some help to fund his remaining purchases. Below is more detail from Ani:

Hello, my name's Animiki Nevilles. I first started having an interest in becoming a mechanic because I used to watch my father tirelessly work on his car. Sometimes I would help him out, not anything big just holding a flashlight, but working with and watching my father do stuff on his car became a very enjoyable memory to look back on. That's where my interest started and continues to grow from.

I recently graduated from Dunwoody College of Technology with an Associate's Degree in Applied Science Automotive Service Technology. My career plans are to work at Mercedes-Benz and become a master technician. I have already completed some of the training required to get started at Mercedes-Benz.

I am hoping to raise $5,000 to pay for the rest of my automotive tools and toolbox. Any remaining funds will be put towards purchasing my first car, the certificate tests I will need to take in order to become a master technician, and paying down my student loans. The remaining tools I plan to purchase are metric and SAE sockets, 3/8 ratchets, 1/4 ratchets, 1/2 ratchets, all sizes for wrenches, in. lb torque wrench, air impact, ft. lb torque wrench, various screwdrivers and Phillips, precision tools including DVOM, oscilloscope, a Pico scope, pry bars, different kinds of hammers, specialty tools for various car manufacturers, and more.

Thank you so much for reading, donating, and sharing. Any kind of donation is deeply appreciated and I am grateful for your support. -Animiki Nevilles
