Arun needs clippers, chairs and mirrors to reopen a barbershop

Arun has run a barbershop for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $450 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a barbershop in Ahmedabad. In August, a break-in 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 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $450 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $100 • Initial stock: supplies: $75 • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $275 Every share and every dollar helps.

    Keep going, Arun. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
