Back to business - Priyanka's comeback in New Delhi
Priyanka has run a sewing studio for three years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $650 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a sewing studio in New Delhi. In March, a break-in took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 3 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 $650 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $80
• Initial stock: fabric: $65
• Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $505
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Kingston.
Wishing you peace, Priyanka. Hope the shop reopens soon. Greetings from London.

Thinking of you, Priyanka. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Riyadh donated after I showed her your page.
You're not alone, Priyanka. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of New Delhi
