I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $150 goes: • Towing and inspection: $10 • transmission replacement (parts): $95 • Labor charges: $45 Thanks for being kind about this. - Sunita

Updates from Sunita

  1. Thank you all. We're at 13% now ($19). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($9 in total) the plan for labor charges is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    • Wishing you peace. Small businesses are the heart of Coimbatore. Hope you're open again soon. We're a small family in Fort Worth but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Coimbatore.
