Back to business - Bushra's comeback in Lahore
Bushra has run a bicycle repair shop for three years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $500 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Lahore. In June, a break-in took a full set of tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $500 goes:
• Replacing a full set of tools: $310
• Initial stock: spare parts: $75
• Working capital for the first month: $115

Good luck, Bushra. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
