Help Angela restart a fish stall in Auckland after a long illness and repossession
A fish stall in Auckland needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a long illness and repossession.

For nine years I have run a fish stall in Auckland. In April, a long illness and repossession took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 1 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 $3,900 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $2,000
• Initial stock: the first catch: $720
• Shop repairs and licensing: $630
• Working capital for the first month: $550

This is what community support looks like. They didn't just offer generic advice; they provided personalized help tailored to my specific situation.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Auckland.
hope it all works out, Angela. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
hope you get there. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Auckland.
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Mandurah.
