For six years I have run a fish stall in Uberlândia. In May, 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 Thursday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $1,350 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $940
• Initial stock: the first catch: $95
• Shop repairs and licensing: $160
• Working capital for the first month: $155
Every share and every dollar helps.

You're not alone, Renata. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Love from Vancouver.
