Help Derek replace the clutch assembly and return to work
Without my tuk-tuk Derek can't work; a $1,800 repair would put him back on the road.
Updates from Derek
Update from Chandler: I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. We're at 40% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you all. We're at 34% now ($618). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward road tax and insurance renewal.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($274 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Aurangabad
So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
rooting for you, Derek. Hope the shop reopens soon. Love from Siliguri
Good luck. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Chandler.
Wishing you the best, Derek. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Caruaru.

Sending good thoughts. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Derek. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Chandler
hang in there, Derek. Hope you get there. Blessings
Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Chennai.
