For nine years I have run a phone repair counter in Anaheim. In October, floodwater took a soldering station and testing tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, 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 $3,500 goes: • Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $2,500 • Initial stock: replacement parts: $410 • Shop repairs and licensing: $220 • Working capital for the first month: $370 With deep gratitude, Addison

  • Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

    • Rooting for you, Addison. Hope you get there. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
