Get Pavithra back on the road: my motorbike repair fund
Without my motorbike Pavithra can't work; a $250 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 6 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 1 children. 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 $250 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $175
• Labor charges: $35
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $15
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Nairobi.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings!
Stay strong, Pavithra. Hope you make a strong comeback.
