Mansoura

For four years I have run a roadside café in Mansoura. In July, a fire in the building took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Thursday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $650 goes: • Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $360 • Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $115 • Shop repairs and licensing: $110 • Working capital for the first month: $65 Thanks for being kind about this. - Mohammed

Update from Mansoura: I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. We're at 13% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
