Start-up fund for Renata: reopening a phone repair counter after a fire in the building
A phone repair counter in Kraków needs help replacing a soldering station and testing tools after a fire in the building.
🇵🇱 Lesser Poland, Poland1,221 views
For fifteen years I have run a phone repair counter in Kraków. In June, a fire in the building 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 Thursday, and I employed 1 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $1,100
• Initial stock: replacement parts: $175
• Shop repairs and licensing: $130
• Working capital for the first month: $245

Take care. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Üsküdar!
so sorry you're going through this, Renata. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
Best of luck. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Wishing you the best, Renata. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless
Sending love, Renata. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Kraków

Praying for you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Please keep us posted. Take care.
