Haitian Student in Need of Reliable Used Car
 
Haitian friend Edrich has gone 6 weeks with no car, relying on friends and family to get him across town to his full-time job (which ends at midnight four nights a week, making it difficult to get rides or a bus).
 
This immigrant friend who has no parent available to help him, is asking for help to find a reliable vehicle.
 
Thank you,
Bob Grimac, 546-5643
