Boris's my tuk-tuk is Boris's only source of income and needs a fuel pump replacement costing $350.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 3 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $350 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $175
• Labor charges: $100
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Towing and inspection: $35
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Small businesses are the heart of Kazan. Hope you're open again soon. We're a small family in Palermo but we're thinking of you. God bless
Sending love, Boris. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings!
This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Kazan!
