For four years I have run a tailoring shop in Lalitpur. In June, the demolition of the market took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $250 goes:
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $45
• Working capital for the first month: $100
• Shop repairs and licensing: $105
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

best of luck, Hari. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Marrakesh.
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 11 people at work.
