Khulna
For nine years I have run a sewing studio in Khulna. In April, the demolition of the market took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 3 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 $300 goes: โ€ข Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $150 โ€ข Initial stock: fabric: $85 โ€ข Shop repairs and licensing: $45 โ€ข Working capital for the first month: $20 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Dipu
