Tampa
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Tampa. In July, a storm that collapsed the roof took a commercial oven. 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 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 $3,200 goes: • Replacing a commercial oven: $1,650 • Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $670 • Shop repairs and licensing: $560 • Working capital for the first month: $320 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Nuria
