Help Bagus restart a fish stall in Jakarta Selatan after a break-in
Bagus has run a fish stall for nine years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $450 will put it back on its feet.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Selatan, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,573 views
For nine years I have run a fish stall in Jakarta Selatan. In August, 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 Wednesday, and I employed 2 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 $450 goes:
• Initial stock: the first catch: $70
• Working capital for the first month: $80
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $300
Thank you so much.

Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Please keep us posted. Love from Accra.
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Paris this morning.
Stay strong. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.
Rooting for you, Bagus. Shared this with my family. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.
I hope things turn around soon. Love from Latina.
