Get Jacques back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund
Jacques's my tuk-tuk is Jacques's only source of income and needs a fuel pump replacement costing $1,300.
🇫🇷 Poitiers, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France700 views
I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 10 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,300. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $1,300 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $760
• Labor charges: $220
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $270
• Towing and inspection: $50
Glad we found this place.

Rooting for you, Jacques. Small businesses are the heart of Poitiers. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to Spokane so I could bring a meal.
