Get Lungile back on the road: my delivery van repair fund
Lungile drives for a living in Cape Town, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 3 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 3 weeks ago the gearbox 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 family of five. 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $150 goes:
• Labor charges: $40
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $100
Thanks for being kind about this.
