For twelve years I have run a phone repair counter in Munich. In September, floodwater 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 Tuesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $2,250 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $450 • Initial stock: replacement parts: $350 • Replacing a soldering station and testing tools: $1,450 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Susanne

Good news. Because of your gifts ($55 in total) I made the first payment toward replacing a soldering station and testing tools. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
7% there. I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.
