Start-up fund for Alok: reopening a bicycle repair shop after a break-in
Alok has run a bicycle repair shop for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $400 will put it back on its feet.
Updates from Alok
Small update. $339 so far, I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 47% funded and I made the first payment toward shop repairs and licensing.
