Get Viviane back on the road: my taxi repair fund
Viviane's my taxi is Viviane's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $150.
Anywhere in the world1,274 views
I make my living with my taxi. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 family of five. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $150 goes:
• Labor charges: $60
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $70
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace, Viviane. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Greetings from Nashik
Wishing you peace, Viviane. This could happen to any of us. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings!
Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
You're not alone, Viviane. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
Take care. Hope the shop reopens soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Tallahassee.
Hope the shop reopens soon. After 29 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you peace, Viviane. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Fort Portal this morning. Love from Fort Portal
Take care, Viviane. It takes guts to ask. Well done
