Help Angelica restart a bicycle repair shop in Calamba after a long illness and repossession
Angelica has run a bicycle repair shop for three years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $500 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Calamba. In July, a long illness and repossession took a full set of tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 2 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 $500 goes:
• Replacing a full set of tools: $175
• Initial stock: spare parts: $135
• Shop repairs and licensing: $50
• Working capital for the first month: $140
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace, Angelica. Hope the shop reopens soon. Love from Montego Bay
hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Praying for you, Angelica. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
