Back to business - Brooks's comeback in San Antonio
Brooks lost clippers, chairs and mirrors to a storm that collapsed the roof and needs $1,050 to reopen a barbershop and support the family.
Updates from Brooks
Quick update: $643 raised so far (61%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($110 in total) I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
