Get Chantel back on the road: my pickup repair fund
Chantel drives for a living in Cape Town, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $450. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $450 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $270
• Labor charges: $35
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $95
• Towing and inspection: $50
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
