Get Divya back on the road: my motorbike repair fund
Divya drives for a living in Minneapolis, and a broken transmission has stopped all income for 5 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 5 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,200. 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 $1,200 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $870
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $150
• Towing and inspection: $180
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Praying for you. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Los Angeles.
Sending strength, Divya. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
thanks for sharing this. Small businesses are the heart of Minneapolis. Hope you're open again soon. Blessings.
Wishing you peace. Hope you make a strong comeback. Love from Los Angeles.
hope it all works out, Divya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Bogra donated after I showed her your page.
