Özlem has run a fish stall for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $250 will put it back on its feet.

Konya
For twelve years I have run a fish stall in Konya. In October, a break-in took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 3 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. I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go. Where the $250 goes: • Initial stock: the first catch: $110 • Shop repairs and licensing: $55 • Working capital for the first month: $85 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Özlem
