Javier needs my tuk-tuk repaired to get back to work in Guadalupe
Javier drives for a living in Guadalupe, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 7 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $600. 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 eleven 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 $600 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $370
• Labor charges: $80
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $85
• Towing and inspection: $65
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
