Gita needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Semarang
Gita's my food truck is Gita's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $200.
🇮🇩 Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia1,326 views
I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 three 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 $200 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $145
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $5
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

How is Gita doing now?
Hope things get better soon. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta Barat so I could bring a meal.
Small businesses are the heart of Semarang. Hope you're open again soon. Please keep us posted. Greetings from San Diego.
Best of luck, Gita. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Semarang.
