Start-up fund for Haider: reopening a phone repair counter after a storm that collapsed the roof

For twelve years I have run a phone repair counter in Sukkur. In August, a storm that collapsed the roof 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 Friday, and I employed 1 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 $450 goes: • Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $290 • Initial stock: replacement parts: $50 • Shop repairs and licensing: $40 • Working capital for the first month: $70 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
