Márcio needs my taxi repaired to get back to work in São Paulo
Without my taxi Márcio can't work; a $300 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 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 $300 goes:
• Labor charges: $95
• Towing and inspection: $35
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $170
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
