Five star Barbers need new tools

Donation protected
My name is Laurentino Arellano, I became the owner of Five Star Barber Shop two months before COVID, It's been a rough few years for all of us to say the least, but thankfully we continue to be at your service thanks to our loyal and continuous friends and clientele. These exceptional barbers (Lashey, Pinky, Rose and Ben) kept Five Star afloat with their second to none skills and with professional skills you at least have to have a decent arsenal
This is not about COVID or me even though I will cut your hair with my teeth if I have to. Unfortunately Five Star Barber shop was broken into and vandalized at 6:00 in the morning July 10th from an unknown vandal. I will provide photos on our Instagram platform. Apparently he (possible she)was looking for cash. He took barbers first tips that was framed, then smashed everything inside the barbershop for no apparent reason and did considerable damage. The barbers tools as well...these tools can be pricey. All 4 barbers were affected, I'm not looking for a handout or to buy top of the line tools, just standard tools that will get them by. I wish I could afford to buy all of their tools because they are like my kids. But, at this moment in time I cannot at this point in our situation afford to buy the tools for them myself. I'm not sure what my general liability insurance will cover, all I know is our barbers need these tools as soon as possible. Whatever you can help out with would be absolutely from the bottom of our hearts appreciated.. We're just a little humble shop on the outskirts of National City busting out some of the finest and freshest second to none cuts that San Diego has to offer. We will move forward from this. Just a reminder, Five Star would be no star without you. And again, thank you all for continuous support. We look forward to seeing you soon. We will be open Tuesday the 12th**UPDATE TO ALL FRIENDS ,family, clientele..ty you all!!...you know who you are!..,NO NEED TO DONATE again!.OUR ISURANCE DID NOT COVER ITEMS STRUCTURALLY INSIDE THE SHOP we attempt will  VISIT other PLATFORMs AND SEE IF THE PUBLIC OUTSIDE OUR CITY that woul BE WILLING help with the ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN LOST THROUGH THE  VANDALISM INSIDE THE SHOP THANK YOU AGAIN FOR your CONTINUED SUPPORT !
