Get Diana back on the road: my taxi repair fund

Without my taxi Diana can't work; a $300 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 12 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $300 goes: • suspension replacement (parts): $210 • Labor charges: $40 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $40 • Towing and inspection: $10 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

                  keep going. Small businesses are the heart of Zaporizhzhia. Hope you're open again soon. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.

                  • hope things get better soon, Diana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.

                    • Stay strong, Diana. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
