Veracruz
For six years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Veracruz. In November, a fire in the building took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, 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. I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go. Where the $1,150 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $200 • Replacing a commercial oven: $750 • Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $200 Thank you for reading my story.

    Best of luck, Teresa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

    • Hope it all works out, Teresa. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Pretoria.

      • Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

        • Best of luck, Teresa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted. Love from Giza.

          • Hope things get better soon, Teresa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
