Back to business - Yasmin's comeback in Luxor
A fish stall in Luxor needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a fire in the building.
🇪🇬 Luxor, Luxor, Egypt1,794 views
For fifteen years I have run a fish stall in Luxor. In August, a fire in the building took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, 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 $500 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $320
• Initial stock: the first catch: $55
• Shop repairs and licensing: $70
• Working capital for the first month: $55
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
