Help Rachel restart a tailoring shop in Chicago after a fire in the building

For four years I have run a tailoring shop in Chicago. In January, a fire in the building took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $3,300 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $450 • Replacing three industrial sewing machines: $2,200 • Working capital for the first month: $650 Glad we found this place.
