Get Josiane back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund
Without my tuk-tuk Josiane can't work; a $350 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 8 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $350 goes:
• Labor charges: $95
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $65
• gearbox replacement (parts): $190
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Rooting for you, Josiane. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from St. Louis.
hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from London
