Océane needs two washing machines and a dryer to reopen a laundry service
Océane has run a laundry service for six years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $3,000 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a laundry service in Marseille. In July, a break-in took two washing machines and a dryer. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $3,000 goes:
• Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $2,050
• Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $500
• Working capital for the first month: $450
Thank you so much.

hang in there, Océane. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of Marseille.
