Get Esperanza back on the road: my motorbike repair fund
Without my motorbike Esperanza can't work; a $150 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 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 $150 goes:
• Labor charges: $70
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $35
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
