Start-up fund for Muhammad: reopening a phone repair counter after the demolition of the market
Muhammad has run a phone repair counter for four years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $100 will put it back on its feet.

For four years I have run a phone repair counter in Malang. In June, the demolition of the market 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 Tuesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $100 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $25
• Working capital for the first month: $45
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $30
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
