Thủ Đức
For four years I have run a barbershop in Thủ Đức. In July, 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 8 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 $700 goes: • Initial stock: supplies: $145 • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $430 • Working capital for the first month: $125 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Phong
