For fifteen years I have run a phone repair counter in Yonkers. In June, a fire in the building 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 Tuesday, and I employed 3 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 $3,950 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $220
• Working capital for the first month: $500
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $3,230
If you're reading this, thank you.
