Patricia needs a soldering station and testing tools to reopen a phone repair counter
Patricia lost a soldering station and testing tools to a break-in and needs $800 to reopen a phone repair counter and support the family.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines1,494 views
For twelve years I have run a phone repair counter in Quezon City. In May, a break-in took a soldering station and testing tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $800 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $95
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $620
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $85
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
