Amélie needs a freezer and scales to reopen a fish stall
Amélie has run a fish stall for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $3,950 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a fish stall in Vancouver. In August, a break-in took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Thursday, 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 $3,950 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $2,750
• Initial stock: the first catch: $340
• Shop repairs and licensing: $570
• Working capital for the first month: $290
Glad we found this place.
