Get Kalliopi back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund

Kalliopi drives for a living in Athens, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 12 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $650. 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 4 children. 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 $650 goes: • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $340 • Labor charges: $70 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $150 • Towing and inspection: $90 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Kalliopi
