Help Ramón restart a phone repair counter in Tijuana after a fire in the building
Ramón lost a soldering station and testing tools to a fire in the building and needs $1,100 to reopen a phone repair counter and support the family.

For fifteen years I have run a phone repair counter in Tijuana. In July, a fire in the building took a soldering station and testing tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $1,100 goes:
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $570
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $195
• Shop repairs and licensing: $115
• Working capital for the first month: $220
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Keep going, Ramón. Hope you get there. Blessings
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Coatzacoalcos so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too
hope the shop reopens soon. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Hope you get there. We're a small family in Portland but we're thinking of you. All the best
