Supaporn has run a barbershop for six years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $450 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a barbershop in Bang Khen. In August, a break-in took clippers, chairs and mirrors. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 1 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $450 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $190
• Shop repairs and licensing: $105
• Initial stock: supplies: $155
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thinking of you, Supaporn. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Supaporn
Sure. The biggest one is working capital for the first month, $190. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Ask me anything else.
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Lagos.
This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Bang Khen
best of luck. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Belo Horizonte so I could bring a meal. Take care.
thinking of you and your family, Supaporn. Hope this works out for you. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Supaporn. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
Hang in there, Supaporn. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Sending love, Supaporn. Your post was clear and honest
Take care, Supaporn. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Naples
Stay strong, Supaporn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Adama
