Get Shai back on the road: my ride-share car repair fund
Shai drives for a living in Tel Aviv, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 3 weeks.
🇮🇱 Tel Aviv, Israel1,691 views
I make my living with my ride-share car. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $950. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $950 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $370
• Labor charges: $300
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $210
• Towing and inspection: $70
Thanks for reading all this.
