Back to business - Arthur's comeback in Reims

Arthur has run a laundry service for four years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $1,450 will put it back on its feet.

Reims
For four years I have run a laundry service in Reims. In September, the demolition of the market took two washing machines and a dryer. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Thursday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $1,450 goes: • Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $690 • Shop repairs and licensing: $420 • Working capital for the first month: $340 With deep gratitude, Arthur
