Help Dineo restart a small grocery stall in Paarl after a long illness and repossession
Dineo has run a small grocery stall for twelve years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $400 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a small grocery stall in Paarl. In June, a long illness and repossession 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 3 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 $400 goes:
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $155
• Shop repairs and licensing: $160
• Working capital for the first month: $85

Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Mbale this morning.
praying for you. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
