Sebastian needs clippers, chairs and mirrors to reopen a barbershop
A barbershop in Bowling Green needs help replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors after the demolition of the market.
🇺🇸 Kentucky, United States677 views
For four years I have run a barbershop in Bowling Green. In July, the demolition of the market took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Thursday, 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $3,400 goes:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $1,900
• Initial stock: supplies: $880
• Shop repairs and licensing: $620
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Sebastian. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together.
You're not alone, Sebastian. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.
Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from San Antonio.
Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Medellín.
Hope things get better soon, Sebastian. Small businesses are the heart of Bowling Green. Hope you're open again soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
