My tuk-tuk: Halima's only way to earn a living

Without my tuk-tuk Halima can't work; a $150 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 6 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system 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 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 three 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: • Towing and inspection: $15 • Labor charges: $65 • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $70 With deep gratitude, Halima
