Help Dennis restart a street-food cart in Kampala after floodwater

Dennis has run a street-food cart for three years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $350 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a street-food cart in Kampala. In January, floodwater took a gas stove and two refrigerators. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Friday, 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $350 goes: • Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $175 • Initial stock: ingredients: $100 • Shop repairs and licensing: $30 • Working capital for the first month: $45 With deep gratitude, Dennis
