Get Amaya back on the road: my pickup repair fund

Amaya drives for a living in Negombo, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 12 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 four 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 $100 goes: • Labor charges: $40 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $35 • Towing and inspection: $25 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Amaya

  1. Thank you all. We're at 35% now ($35). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for labor charges is now scheduled.
