For twelve years I have run a laundry service in San Francisco. In September, floodwater 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 Monday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $2,700 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $920
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $550
• Shop repairs and licensing: $570
• Working capital for the first month: $660
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
