Manal needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Luxor
Without my food truck Manal can't work; a $250 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 3 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $250 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
• Labor charges: $40
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $160
Thank you for reading my story.

Keep going, Manal. Your post was clear and honest.

Hope things get better soon, Manal. Small businesses are the heart of Luxor. Hope you're open again soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Jerusalem.
