Cebu City
For six years I have run a street-food cart in Cebu City. In December, a break-in took a gas stove and two refrigerators. 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 6 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 $700 goes: • Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $470 • Initial stock: ingredients: $95 • Shop repairs and licensing: $100 • Working capital for the first month: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Joshua
