Help Mwangi replace the clutch assembly and return to work
Mwangi drives for a living in Kisumu, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 10 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 wife and our newborn. 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 $250 goes:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $135
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
• Towing and inspection: $5
Thanks for reading all this.

Thank you all. We're at 74% now ($185). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward road tax and insurance renewal.
