Mazen lost a full set of tools to the demolition of the market and needs $550 to reopen a bicycle repair shop and support the family.

For nine years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Zagazig. In December, 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 Thursday, and I employed 3 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 $550 goes:
• Initial stock: spare parts: $90
• Working capital for the first month: $110
• Replacing a full set of tools: $350
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing you peace, Mazen. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
