Logan has run a tailoring shop for six years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $3,350 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a tailoring shop in Tacoma. In September, floodwater took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 2 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 $3,350 goes:
• Replacing three industrial sewing machines: $2,150
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $490
• Shop repairs and licensing: $270
• Working capital for the first month: $440
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Stay strong, Logan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out
Take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
hope it all works out, Logan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Mombasa
