For four years I have run a phone repair counter in San Antonio. In August, 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 Sunday, and I employed 2 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 $3,250 goes:
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $2,050
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $570
• Shop repairs and licensing: $630
If you're reading this, thank you.

How is Asher doing now?
good luck, Asher. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Bangkok
Sending good thoughts, Asher. Hope you make a strong comeback. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of San Antonio
