Back to business - Dinesh's comeback in Huntsville
Dinesh has run a small grocery stall for twelve years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $2,400 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a small grocery stall in Huntsville. In January, a long illness and repossession took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $2,400 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $580
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $1,500
• Shop repairs and licensing: $320
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Shared this with my family. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
Keep going, Dinesh. Small businesses are the heart of Huntsville. Hope you're open again soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Cartagena.
