Help Rattapon restart a bicycle repair shop in Phuket after a storm that collapsed the roof
A bicycle repair shop in Phuket needs help replacing a full set of tools after a storm that collapsed the roof.

For fifteen years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Phuket. In July, a storm that collapsed the roof took a full set of tools. 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 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $400 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $155
• Initial stock: spare parts: $200
• Shop repairs and licensing: $45
Thank you so much.
