Seul-gi has run a laundry service for six years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $2,700 will put it back on its feet.

Suwon
For six years I have run a laundry service in Suwon. In March, floodwater 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 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 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 $2,700 goes: • Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $1,750 • Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $250 • Shop repairs and licensing: $340 • Working capital for the first month: $360 Every share and every dollar helps.

    Is there anything that isn't money that would help Seul-gi?
