Start-up fund for Dusit: reopening a tailoring shop after a break-in
A tailoring shop in Nakhon Ratchasima needs help replacing three industrial sewing machines after a break-in.

For six years I have run a tailoring shop in Nakhon Ratchasima. In July, a break-in took three industrial sewing machines. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $750 goes:
• Replacing three industrial sewing machines: $250
• Initial stock: fabric and thread: $200
• Shop repairs and licensing: $180
• Working capital for the first month: $120
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

rooting for you, Dusit. I hope things turn around soon. After 26 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
