I make my living with my motorbike. 5 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 eleven 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $500 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $270
• Labor charges: $70
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $105
• Towing and inspection: $55
Every share and every dollar helps.
Updates from Daniel
Good news. Because of your gifts ($295 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Thank you all. We're at 54% now ($270). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts.
We're at 14% thanks to 2 of you. I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

Good luck, Daniel. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Campinas.
