Help Zenaida replace the rear axle and return to work
Zenaida's my taxi is Zenaida's only source of income and needs a rear axle replacement costing $100.

I make my living with my taxi. 5 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 2 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $100 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Labor charges: $35
• Towing and inspection: $20
With deep gratitude,
Zenaida

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Zenaida?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about road tax and insurance renewal, advice is welcome too. Good question.
Hope things get better soon. Hope the shop reopens soon. I'll check back for the next update.
Keep going, Zenaida. Shared it with a few friends
Hope things get better soon, Zenaida. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Kisumu.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Dasmariñas!
