For six years I have run a barbershop in Bordeaux. In March, a break-in took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 1 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $2,350 goes: • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $1,200 • Initial stock: supplies: $260 • Shop repairs and licensing: $480 • Working capital for the first month: $410 If you're reading this, thank you. - Léo

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Léo.

    • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors comes first ($1,200) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.

  • praying for you. Hope you get there. Blessings.
