Help Emilia restart a neighborhood bakery in Gothenburg after a long illness and repossession
Emilia lost a commercial oven to a long illness and repossession and needs $1,600 to reopen a neighborhood bakery and support the family.
🇸🇪 Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, SwedenPosted Oct 1, 20261,382 views
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Gothenburg. In September, a long illness and repossession took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $480
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $480
• Working capital for the first month: $640
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Pittsburgh so I could bring a meal. Love from Ogbomosho.
