My food truck: Hamisi's only way to earn a living

Without my food truck Hamisi can't work; a $250 repair would put him back on the road.

🇹🇿 Tanzania1,477 views
I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system 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 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $250 goes: • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $130 • Labor charges: $55 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $35 • Towing and inspection: $30 Thank you so much. - Hamisi
