Help Dennis replace the transmission and return to work
Dennis's my motorbike is Dennis's only source of income and needs a transmission replacement costing $100.

I make my living with my motorbike. 6 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 nine 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 $100 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Labor charges: $35
• Towing and inspection: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Nairobi.
stay strong, Dennis. Small businesses are the heart of Kinondoni. Hope you're open again soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best!
Take care. Small businesses are the heart of Kinondoni. Hope you're open again soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Thanks for sharing this, Dennis. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
