Back to business - Arjun's comeback in Mumbai
A small grocery stall in Mumbai needs help replacing a cold-storage unit after a fire in the building.

For three years I have run a small grocery stall in Mumbai. In January, a fire in the building took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $175
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $95
• Shop repairs and licensing: $65
• Working capital for the first month: $115
If you're reading this, thank you.

Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Mukono.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Houston.
