Ryan needs my tuk-tuk repaired to get back to work in San Fernando
Without my tuk-tuk Ryan can't work; a $200 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 12 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 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 $200 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $135
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
With deep gratitude,
Ryan
