Back to business - Jagadish's comeback in Nagpur
Jagadish has run a laundry service for fifteen years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $250 will put it back on its feet.

For fifteen years I have run a laundry service in Nagpur. In July, floodwater 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 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $250 goes:
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $120
• Shop repairs and licensing: $45
• Working capital for the first month: $85
If you're reading this, thank you.

Stay strong, Jagadish. Hope you make a strong comeback. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
Praying for you, Jagadish. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 22 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Good luck, Jagadish. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
