Lviv
For nine years I have run a barbershop in Lviv. In January, 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 $450 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $95 • Replacing clippers, chairs and mirrors: $195 • Initial stock: supplies: $160 Thanks for being kind about this. - Yaroslav

    how is Yaroslav doing now?

    • Alexander Fernandez

      Hope it all works out, Yaroslav. Small businesses are the heart of Lviv. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.

      • Jasmine K. Hernandez

        I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Wish I lived closer to Southampton so I could bring a meal.

          Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Messina but we're thinking of you.

          • Lawrence K. Lowe

            So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Houston.

              Good luck. Hope the shop reopens soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Lviv.
