Mukasa needs clippers, chairs and mirrors to reopen a barbershop

Mukasa has run a barbershop for three years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $700 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a barbershop in Naivasha. In February, the demolition of the market took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $700 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $100 • Working capital for the first month: $65 • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $535 With deep gratitude, Mukasa
