Get Lertchai back on the road: my food truck repair fund
Lertchai's my food truck is Lertchai's only source of income and needs a fuel pump replacement costing $400.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand1,153 views
I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $400. 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 3 children. 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 $400 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $250
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $50
Thank you so much.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Lertchai?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about fuel pump replacement (parts), advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 30 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Bangkok.
