Kassel
For nine years I have run a barbershop in Kassel. In July, 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 Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $2,100 goes: • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $1,000 • Initial stock: supplies: $410 • Shop repairs and licensing: $480 • Working capital for the first month: $210 I hope life is good to you. - Nur

  • any update on how things are going in Kassel?

    • wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Thinking of Kassel.

      • Shared this with my family. After 13 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

        • Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Fresno.

          • Sending love, Nur. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best

            • Praying for you, Nur. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from León.

              • Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to San Jose so I could bring a meal.

                • best of luck. Hope the shop reopens soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.

                  • keep going, Nur. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Rohini donated after I showed her your page. All the best

                    • Hope things get better soon, Nur. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

                      • Small businesses are the heart of Kassel. Hope you're open again soon.
