Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gilles
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. replacing a cutting table and overlocker is the biggest at $2,100. Thanks for looking so closely.
hang in there, Gilles. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings
Sending good thoughts, Gilles. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Manila
Wishing you peace, Gilles. Shared this with my family.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
So sorry you're going through this, Gilles. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
how is Gilles doing now?
Best of luck, Gilles. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Birmingham donated after I showed her your page.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Saint-Étienne
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about replacing a cutting table and overlocker, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.
keep going. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 27 people at work. Blessings.
Small businesses are the heart of Saint-Étienne. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Sending strength, Gilles. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't give up.
hope it all works out. Hope the shop reopens soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Giza but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Giza.
Take care, Gilles. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. God bless
Thinking of you. Small businesses are the heart of Saint-Étienne. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Iloilo City.
