My taxi: Sajib's only way to earn a living
Without my taxi Sajib can't work; a $150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 5 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $75
• Labor charges: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $25
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
