For six years I have run a bicycle repair shop in Quetta. In August, floodwater took a full set of tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $400 goes:
• Replacing a full set of tools: $175
• Initial stock: spare parts: $70
• Shop repairs and licensing: $75
• Working capital for the first month: $80
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
