For three years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Tema. In August, the demolition of the market took a full set of tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $450 goes: • Replacing a full set of tools: $270 • Initial stock: spare parts: $95 • Shop repairs and licensing: $30 • Working capital for the first month: $55 If you're reading this, thank you. - Kwasi

    Sending good thoughts, Kwasi. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Móstoles
