Help Abubakar restart a laundry service in Wudil after the demolition of the market
Abubakar has run a laundry service for six years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $500 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a laundry service in Wudil. In August, the demolition of the market 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 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $500 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $420
• Shop repairs and licensing: $30
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $50
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending strength, Abubakar. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Wudil.
