For six years I have run a sewing studio in Bekasi. In May, a storm that collapsed the roof took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $650 goes:
• Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $450
• Initial stock: fabric: $55
• Shop repairs and licensing: $85
• Working capital for the first month: $60
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you, Naufal. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
Thinking of you and your family, Naufal. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Bekasi.
Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Quezon City this morning. Blessings
Hope things get better soon, Naufal. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Santos but we're thinking of you.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in San Fernando donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
