Back to business - Andrea's comeback in Palermo
Andrea has run a barbershop for six years; a fire in the building destroyed the equipment, and $1,750 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a barbershop in Palermo. In March, 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 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $660
• Initial stock: supplies: $460
• Shop repairs and licensing: $280
• Working capital for the first month: $350
With deep gratitude,
Andrea
