For twelve years I have run a barbershop in San Sebastián. In March, floodwater took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 3 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 $1,650 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $660
• Working capital for the first month: $490
• Initial stock: supplies: $500
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
