Kingsley needs two washing machines and a dryer to reopen a laundry service
Kingsley has run a laundry service for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $150 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a laundry service in Warri. In June, a break-in took two washing machines and a dryer. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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 $150 goes:
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $45
• Working capital for the first month: $65
• Shop repairs and licensing: $40
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Keep going, Kingsley. This could happen to any of us.
Hope it all works out, Kingsley. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out
