Help Eva restart a roadside café in Gothenburg after a storm that collapsed the roof
Eva has run a roadside café for three years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $4,050 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a roadside café in Gothenburg. In March, a storm that collapsed the roof took an espresso machine and grinder. 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 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 $4,050 goes:
• Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $2,650
• Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $860
• Shop repairs and licensing: $290
• Working capital for the first month: $250
Thanks for being kind about this.

I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Gothenburg.
sending strength, Eva. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
Praying for you, Eva. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in București donated after I showed her your page.
