My tuk-tuk: Lorenzo's only way to earn a living
Lorenzo drives for a living in Bogotá, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 12 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 ten 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 $300 goes:
• Labor charges: $80
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $175
Thanks for being kind about this.
