Help Aditi restart a phone repair counter in Ahmedabad after a storm that collapsed the roof

Aditi has run a phone repair counter for nine years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $450 will put it back on its feet.

For nine years I have run a phone repair counter in Ahmedabad. In July, a storm that collapsed the roof 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 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $450 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $110 • Shop repairs and licensing: $85 • Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $255 Thanks for being kind about this. - Aditi

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Aditi

    • Aditi BansalOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. working capital for the first month comes first ($110) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.
