Back to business - Joya's comeback in Pune

Joya has run a barbershop for three years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $350 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a barbershop in Pune. In June, a long illness and repossession took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, 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 $350 goes: • Initial stock: supplies: $50 • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $170 • Working capital for the first month: $130 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • Best of luck, Joya. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Rockford.

    • Hope you make a strong comeback. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
