For twelve years I have run a laundry service in Mysuru. In June, 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 Monday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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 $700 goes: • Initial stock: detergent and packaging: $125 • Replacing two washing machines and a dryer: $460 • Shop repairs and licensing: $115 With deep gratitude, Shailesh
