Support Michael Mendelsohn's Car Repair

Hi. I'm Michael Mendelsohn. I'm a professional musician and my car's transmission has gone out. The holidays are approaching and I need my automobile. I am not in a financial position to fix it, so I need a little help. Any amount from you would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Addendum: Thank you all for helping me reach my goal. Unfortunately it's going to cost about $500 more than what I have. I feel bad asking for more, but please help if you can. Thank you.
