Start-up fund for Vinh: reopening a barbershop after a storm that collapsed the roof

For twelve years I have run a barbershop in Hồ Chí Minh City. In June, a storm that collapsed the roof took clippers, chairs and mirrors. 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 10 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 $250 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $85 • Shop repairs and licensing: $75 • Initial stock: supplies: $90 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
