For twelve years I have run a barbershop in Cebu City. In May, a long illness and repossession 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 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $800 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $540
• Initial stock: supplies: $80
• Shop repairs and licensing: $80
• Working capital for the first month: $100
I hope life is good to you.
