Help Bushra restart a sewing studio in Lahore after the demolition of the market

Bushra has run a sewing studio for nine years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $600 will put it back on its feet.

For nine years I have run a sewing studio in Lahore. In June, the demolition of the market took a cutting table and overlocker. 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 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 $600 goes: • Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $360 • Initial stock: fabric: $75 • Shop repairs and licensing: $70 • Working capital for the first month: $95 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
