Anderson needs clippers, chairs and mirrors to reopen a barbershop
Anderson lost clippers, chairs and mirrors to a fire in the building and needs $800 to reopen a barbershop and support the family.
🇧🇷 Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil1,636 views
For twelve years I have run a barbershop in Porto Alegre. In August, a fire in the building took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $800 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $165
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $460
• Working capital for the first month: $175
Thank you so much.

Wishing you peace, Anderson. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in San Francisco but we're thinking of you.
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope December is when things finally get easier. God bless
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Anderson
Rooting for you, Anderson. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Nnewi
