Back to business - Wilfredo's comeback in Dasmariñas
Wilfredo has run a barbershop for four years; a fire in the building destroyed the equipment, and $750 will put it back on its feet.
🇵🇭 Cavite, Philippines2,536 views
For four years I have run a barbershop in Dasmariñas. In July, 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 Friday, and I employed 3 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 $750 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $480
• Initial stock: supplies: $90
• Shop repairs and licensing: $75
• Working capital for the first month: $105
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Kyoto.
Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Ho.
Thinking of you and your family, Wilfredo. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
