Start-up fund for Batuhan: reopening a phone repair counter after a fire in the building

For four years I have run a phone repair counter in İzmir. In January, a fire in the building took a soldering station and testing tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $500 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $160 • Initial stock: replacement parts: $200 • Working capital for the first month: $140 Thank you for reading my story.
