Eko needs a soldering station and testing tools to reopen a phone repair counter
A phone repair counter in Jakarta needs help replacing a soldering station and testing tools after a long illness and repossession.
🇮🇩 DKI Jakarta, Indonesia560 views
For six years I have run a phone repair counter in Jakarta. In July, 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 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $250 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $35
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $115
• Working capital for the first month: $100
Thanks for reading all this.

Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Abuja donated after I showed her your page. Love from Abuja.
Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Pune.
Thinking of you and your family, Eko. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Hồ Chí Minh City this morning. God bless.
good luck. Hope the shop reopens soon. My husband and I read this together. Take care
Keep going, Eko. Your post was clear and honest.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best
