Start-up fund for Leandro: reopening a phone repair counter after a break-in
A phone repair counter in Campinas needs help replacing a soldering station and testing tools after a break-in.
🇧🇷 Brazil554 views
For four years I have run a phone repair counter in Campinas. In August, a break-in 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 3 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: $110
• Working capital for the first month: $170
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $220
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
