Back to business - Vishal's comeback in San Jose
A barbershop in San Jose needs help replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors after a fire in the building.

For fifteen years I have run a barbershop in San Jose. In December, a fire in the building took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $3,750 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $360
• Initial stock: supplies: $950
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $2,440
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong, Vishal. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from São Paulo.
Hope things get better soon. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings
Hope it all works out. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Nakuru
