Back to business - Mousumi's comeback in Gazipur
Mousumi lost two washing machines and a dryer to floodwater and needs $400 to reopen a laundry service and support the family.

For three years I have run a laundry service in Gazipur. In June, 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 Monday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $400 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $310
• Shop repairs and licensing: $60
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $30
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

You're not alone, Mousumi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 24 people at work. All the best!
Sending good thoughts, Mousumi. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Medellín
