Sapna needs my motorbike repaired to get back to work in Glasgow
Without my motorbike Sapna can't work; a $950 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 5 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $950. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $950 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $500
• Labor charges: $250
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $100
• Towing and inspection: $100
Thank you so much.
Updates from Sapna
33% there. the plan for road tax and insurance renewal is now scheduled. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($212 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 17% thanks to 3 of you. the plan for labor charges is now scheduled. More news soon.
