Get Emeka back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund
Without my tuk-tuk Emeka can't work; a $250 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 6 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 twelve 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 $250 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $135
• Labor charges: $45
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $45
With deep gratitude,
Emeka

Rooting for you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Wish I lived closer to Kazan so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Hope you make a strong comeback. Put this on a community board in Casablanca this morning. Love from Casablanca.
