Get Jahid back on the road: my taxi repair fund
Jahid drives for a living in Savar, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my taxi. 10 weeks ago the fuel pump 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $150 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $20
• Labor charges: $20
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $110
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Wishing you peace, Jahid. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Savar
Thinking of you and your family, Jahid. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Mecca so I could bring a meal.
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Savar!
Hope things get better soon, Jahid. I hope things turn around soon.
Wishing you the best. Hope you make a strong comeback. Put this on a community board in Kyiv this morning. Take care.
keep going. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Narayanganj
Small businesses are the heart of Savar. Hope you're open again soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
