My motorbike: Nisha's only way to earn a living
Nisha drives for a living in Hubballi, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $200 goes:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $100
• Labor charges: $35
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.
Updates from Nisha
Update from Hubballi: the plan for clutch assembly replacement is now scheduled. We're at 30% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Quick update: $55 raised so far (28%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 25% funded and the plan for road tax and insurance renewal is now scheduled.
