Back to business - Nnamdi's comeback in Nnewi

Nnamdi has run a street-food cart for four years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $350 will put it back on its feet.

Nnewi
For four years I have run a street-food cart in Nnewi. In April, 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 Thursday, 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $350 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $75 • Working capital for the first month: $85 • Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $190 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Helped when no one else could

    This helper is honest and transparent about what they can do. They didn't overpromise, but they did deliver excellent results. I would definitely trust them again.

    Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
