Back to business - Pranav's comeback in Nashik
Pranav lost a cutting table and overlocker to the demolition of the market and needs $600 to reopen a sewing studio and support the family.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India922 views
For six years I have run a sewing studio in Nashik. In August, the demolition of the market took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $600 goes:
• Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $350
• Initial stock: fabric: $95
• Shop repairs and licensing: $35
• Working capital for the first month: $120
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Pranav?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about replacing a cutting table and overlocker, advice is welcome too.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Pranav
Replacing a cutting table and overlocker is $350 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Good question.
Rooting for you, Pranav. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Hope you make a strong comeback. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Amiens!
