Savar

For twelve years I have run a small grocery stall in Savar. In February, a fire in the building took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Friday, 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 $200 goes: • Initial stock: fresh produce: $65 • Shop repairs and licensing: $75 • Working capital for the first month: $60 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Bappy

Thank you all. We're at 43% now ($87). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for shop repairs and licensing is now scheduled.
