Tâm needs my taxi repaired to get back to work in Hải Phòng
Without my taxi Tâm can't work; a $100 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 7 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Labor charges: $55
Thank you so much.

Hang in there, Tâm. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Kitakyushu.
Sending strength. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Mumbai.
Stay strong, Tâm. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. God bless
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Setagaya so I could bring a meal. Take care.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Hải Phòng.
Thank you. If you're in Hải Phòng I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Take care, Tâm. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together.
you're not alone. Small businesses are the heart of Hải Phòng. Hope you're open again soon. Thinking of Hải Phòng.
sending strength. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Jinja
