Polokwane
For three years I have run a barbershop in Polokwane. In July, a break-in took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 2 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 $1,150 goes: • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $740 • Initial stock: supplies: $160 • Shop repairs and licensing: $140 • Working capital for the first month: $110 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Lindiwe
