Radha needs my pickup repaired to get back to work in Chennai
Radha's my pickup is Radha's only source of income and needs a clutch assembly replacement costing $300.

I make my living with my pickup. 10 weeks ago the clutch assembly 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 1 children. 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:
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $210
• Labor charges: $50
• Towing and inspection: $40
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
