Tabitha needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Fort Portal
Tabitha's my delivery van is Tabitha's only source of income and needs a suspension replacement costing $55.
🇺🇬 Western Region, Uganda818 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $55. 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 nine 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 $55 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Labor charges: $35
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $5
Thank you so much.

Keep going, Tabitha. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Abuja.
Sending love, Tabitha. Shared this with my family. All the best
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tabitha.
Towing and inspection is $15 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
You're not alone, Tabitha. This could happen to any of us. After 29 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Fort Portal
Take care, Tabitha. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did!
Stay strong, Tabitha. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Tlaquepaque so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Fort Portal.
