Back to business - Sundar's comeback in Bengaluru
Sundar lost a cutting table and overlocker to a long illness and repossession and needs $450 to reopen a sewing studio and support the family.

For six years I have run a sewing studio in Bengaluru. In August, a long illness and repossession 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 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $450 goes:
• Initial stock: fabric: $100
• Shop repairs and licensing: $40
• Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $310
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
