Autumn lost a cold-storage unit to floodwater and needs $1,950 to reopen a small grocery stall and support the family.

For six years I have run a small grocery stall in Coventry. In October, floodwater took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, 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 $1,950 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $910
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $530
• Shop repairs and licensing: $210
• Working capital for the first month: $300
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
