Start-up fund for Yanti: reopening a barbershop after the demolition of the market
A barbershop in Jakarta Selatan needs help replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors after the demolition of the market.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Selatan, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia759 views
For fifteen years I have run a barbershop in Jakarta Selatan. In June, the demolition of the market took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, 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:
• Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $310
• Initial stock: supplies: $50
• Shop repairs and licensing: $45
• Working capital for the first month: $95
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hope you make a strong comeback. Greetings from Bogor.
Sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yanti.
Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors is $310 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for asking.
Wishing you the best. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from São Paulo.
Sending good thoughts, Yanti. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
sending good thoughts, Yanti. Hope the shop reopens soon. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan
