Jose needs clippers, chairs and mirrors to reopen a barbershop
Jose has run a barbershop for six years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $3,100 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a barbershop in London. In June, a storm that collapsed the roof took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 2 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 $3,100 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $1,250
• Initial stock: supplies: $740
• Shop repairs and licensing: $650
• Working capital for the first month: $460
Thank you so much.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
