I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $600. 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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 $600 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $380
• Labor charges: $125
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $65
• Towing and inspection: $30
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
Updates from Patrícia
Quick update: $134 raised so far (22%). the plan for road tax and insurance renewal is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($134 in total) I made the first payment toward road tax and insurance renewal. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Small update. $20 so far, the first invoice got paid this week.
