Back to business - Kimberly's comeback in Dallas
Kimberly has run a barbershop for four years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $3,800 will put it back on its feet.

For four years I have run a barbershop in Dallas. In March, the demolition of the market took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $3,800 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $600
• Initial stock: supplies: $850
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $2,350
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
