Back to business - Yaroslav's comeback in Dnipro

Yaroslav lost a soldering station and testing tools to a long illness and repossession and needs $400 to reopen a phone repair counter and support the family.

Dnipro
For three years I have run a phone repair counter in Dnipro. In August, a long illness and repossession 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 Thursday, 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 $400 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $110 • Initial stock: replacement parts: $155 • Shop repairs and licensing: $135 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    Keep going, Yaroslav. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 24 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
