Back to business - Jose's comeback in Toledo
A barbershop in Toledo needs help replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors after a storm that collapsed the roof.

For three years I have run a barbershop in Toledo. In August, a storm that collapsed the roof took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $3,150 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $1,750
• Shop repairs and licensing: $590
• Initial stock: supplies: $810
Thanks for being kind about this.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Riyadh donated after I showed her your page!
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
Keep going, Jose. Looking forward to the next update. All the best
Take care. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Toledo.
