Back to business - Daniel's comeback in Warri
A fish stall in Warri needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a fire in the building.
🇳🇬 Warri, Delta, Nigeria1,144 views
For four years I have run a fish stall in Warri. In May, a fire in the building took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 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 $300 goes:
• Initial stock: the first catch: $130
• Working capital for the first month: $105
• Shop repairs and licensing: $65
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Updates from Daniel
Good news. Because of your gifts ($138 in total) I made the first payment toward initial stock: the first catch. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Warri: I made the first payment toward working capital for the first month. We're at 34% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Daniel
Update from Warri: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 11% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

wishing you peace, Daniel. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
best of luck, Daniel. Your post was clear and honest. After 27 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Warri.
thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Cincinnati.
praying for you. Small businesses are the heart of Warri. Hope you're open again soon. Put this on a community board in Daegu this morning. Blessings
