Claudio needs two washing machines and a dryer to reopen a laundry service
Claudio lost two washing machines and a dryer to a storm that collapsed the roof and needs $1,650 to reopen a laundry service and support the family.

For twelve years I have run a laundry service in Verona. In July, 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 Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $1,650 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $790
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $240
• Shop repairs and licensing: $170
• Working capital for the first month: $450
Thanks for being kind about this.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Claudio?
Stay strong, Claudio. Hope you make a strong comeback. God bless.
Wishing you the best, Claudio. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
