Back to business - Ayesha's comeback in Gazipur
Ayesha lost three industrial sewing machines to a break-in and needs $150 to reopen a tailoring shop and support the family.

For twelve years I have run a tailoring shop in Gazipur. In August, a break-in took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 1 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $150 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $50
• Shop repairs and licensing: $35
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $65
Thank you so much.
