Back to business - Rina's comeback in Gazipur
Rina has run a phone repair counter for nine years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $300 will put it back on its feet.

For nine years I have run a phone repair counter in Gazipur. In August, a storm that collapsed the roof took a soldering station and testing tools. 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 12 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 $300 goes:
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $175
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $60
• Shop repairs and licensing: $65
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thinking of you and your family, Rina. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Belo Horizonte so I could bring a meal. All the best
