Help Santhosh replace the rear axle and return to work
Without my tuk-tuk Santhosh can't work; a $150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 4 weeks ago the rear axle 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $150 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $120
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $20
• Towing and inspection: $10
If you're reading this, thank you.

Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Saket
Hope things get better soon, Santhosh. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Jimma.
Hope it all works out, Santhosh. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Leicester this morning.
