Back to business - Nadia's comeback in Zagazig
Nadia has run a small grocery stall for fifteen years; a fire in the building destroyed the equipment, and $400 will put it back on its feet.

For fifteen years I have run a small grocery stall in Zagazig. In May, a fire in the building 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 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 8 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 $400 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $50
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $220
• Shop repairs and licensing: $130
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

So sorry you're going through this, Nadia. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
