A laundry service in Suwon needs help replacing two washing machines and a dryer after a storm that collapsed the roof.
🇰🇷 South Korea1,516 views
For fifteen years I have run a laundry service in Suwon. In April, a storm that collapsed the roof took two washing machines and a dryer. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 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 $2,250 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $1,300
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $340
• Shop repairs and licensing: $240
• Working capital for the first month: $370
If you're reading this, thank you.
