I make my living with my taxi. 8 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 two daughters and my mother. 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $150 goes: • Road tax and insurance renewal: $55 • Labor charges: $55 • Towing and inspection: $40 If you're reading this, thank you. - George

    You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings

      Sending strength, George. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in London this morning. God bless.

          keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Tema
