Help Ilana replace the rear axle and return to work

Without my tuk-tuk Ilana cannot work; a $750 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $750. 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 six 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 $750 goes: โ€ข rear axle replacement (parts): $480 โ€ข Labor charges: $85 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $110 โ€ข Towing and inspection: $75 Thank you for reading my story. - Ilana

  • How is Ilana doing now?

    • hope it all works out, Ilana. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't give up. Thinking of Tel Aviv.

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ilana!

        • rooting for you. Hope you get there. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

          • thinking of you and your family, Ilana. Gave what I could, wish it was more

            • Good luck. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Abuja.

              • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Ilana?

                • Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta so I could bring a meal. God bless.

                    Thinking of you, Ilana. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Take care.

                    • I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
