Get Tanvi back on the road: my taxi repair fund
Tanvi drives for a living in Noida, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 4 weeks.
🇮🇳 Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India999 views
I make my living with my taxi. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 twelve 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 $300 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $185
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
• Towing and inspection: $5
If you're reading this, thank you.
