Santiago has run a tailoring shop for fifteen years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $4,800 will put it back on its feet.

Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Lviv
is initial stock: fabric and thread the biggest cost or is there more coming?
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. initial stock: fabric and thread is the biggest at $460.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Chicago.
Good luck, Santiago. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Hang in there, Santiago. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
hope things get better soon. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning. Greetings from Los Angeles.
