Back to business - Nafula's comeback in Eldoret
A street-food cart in Eldoret needs help replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators after floodwater.

For fifteen years I have run a street-food cart in Eldoret. In January, floodwater 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 Monday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $450 goes:
• Initial stock: ingredients: $160
• Shop repairs and licensing: $55
• Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $235
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending good thoughts, Nafula. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Sending strength, Nafula. Shared it with a few friends.
Keep going, Nafula. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
so sorry you're going through this, Nafula. Hope the shop reopens soon. God bless
