Help Imran replace the gearbox and return to work
Imran drives for a living in Peshawar, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 3 children. 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 $150 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $15
• gearbox replacement (parts): $110
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending love, Imran. Hope the shop reopens soon. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. I'll ask around and let you know
Hope the shop reopens soon. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
