Get Bảo back on the road: my taxi repair fund
Bảo drives for a living in Hanoi, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my taxi. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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 $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Labor charges: $35
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
Updates from Bảo
Update from Hanoi: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 52% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you all. We're at 32% now ($32). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for road tax and insurance renewal is now scheduled.
