Get Rowena back on the road: my food truck repair fund
Rowena drives for a living in Quezon City, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $350 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $260
• Labor charges: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Towing and inspection: $15
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hang in there, Rowena. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. We're a small family in San Cristóbal de las Casas but we're thinking of you. All the best.
