Get Maricel back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund
Without my tuk-tuk Maricel can't work; a $100 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 10 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 eleven 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 $100 goes:
• Labor charges: $55
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
Thanks for reading all this.

Hope it all works out, Maricel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Pasig.
Keep going, Maricel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Jakarta Selatan
Sending strength. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. We're a small family in Konya but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Pasig.
Hope it all works out, Maricel. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Pasig!
keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Tokyo this morning. God bless.
Thinking of you, Maricel. Hope you get there.
wishing you the best, Maricel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
