Anna needs three industrial sewing machines to reopen a tailoring shop
Anna has run a tailoring shop for fifteen years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $2,300 will put it back on its feet.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Germany855 views
For fifteen years I have run a tailoring shop in Berlin. In July, a long illness and repossession took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $2,300 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $390
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $390
• Replacing three industrial sewing machines: $1,520
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Manchester.
