Ronke needs three industrial sewing machines to reopen a tailoring shop
A tailoring shop in Badagry needs help replacing three industrial sewing machines after a break-in.
🇳🇬 Nigeria335 views
For nine years I have run a tailoring shop in Badagry. In July, a break-in took three industrial sewing machines. 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 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 $450 goes:
• Replacing three industrial sewing machines: $240
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $100
• Shop repairs and licensing: $60
• Working capital for the first month: $50
With deep gratitude,
Ronke

Best of luck, Ronke. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
