Gwangju
For six years I have run a small grocery stall in Gwangju. In August, the demolition of the market took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 3 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 $2,800 goes: • Replacing a cold-storage unit: $2,000 • Initial stock: fresh produce: $210 • Shop repairs and licensing: $350 • Working capital for the first month: $240 Thanks for being kind about this. - Min-ji
