My name is Gloria, and I am a senior citizen living on a limited income. Recently, my vehicle was involved in an accident when a javelina collided with the left front fender, causing major damage. While I was waiting to repair the body damage, I had to use some of the funds I received for a new battery and starter, as the car wouldn’t start. Now, the sensors are preventing the car from starting at all, and I am facing a high deductible for collision and comprehensive coverage. I don’t know how much fixing the sensors will cost, but I know it won’t be cheap.

Having my car repaired is essential for me. I rely on my vehicle to get to doctors’ appointments and to run daily errands. Without it, I lose my independence and ability to take care of myself. As someone on a fixed income, these unexpected expenses are overwhelming, and I am not sure how I will manage them on my own.

I am not one to ask for financial help. However, I have been blessed in the past with the unsolicited generosity of others, and I am deeply grateful for the support I have already received—though it had to go toward mechanical repairs instead of the bodywork. Any help you can offer now, no matter the amount, would mean so much to me. Thank you for considering supporting me during this difficult time.
