Help Save Cats Lives = Better Auto

I am 61 years old .I have worked as an all-around handyman and animal care assistant for a non-profit Cat Rescue League in Palm City for 6 years! They rely on me to do all the maintenance on the buildings, the irrigation and all the Landscaping on a 5 acre property! Due to Financial difficulties my hours have been cut from 40 to 24! I drive a 2000 Toyota that has almost 300,000 miles on it! I just found out I need over $1,000 in repairs done to it! I have spent almost $1,200 in the last 6 months on it! I cannot afford to keep putting money into it, but I need a vehicle to go back and forth to work! Please help me to get a better vehicle so I can keep working and keep the roof over the cats heads and to keep them healthy and happy. Most importantly, keep a roof over my family's head!
