For three years I have run a roadside café in Liverpool. In August, a long illness and repossession took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Thursday, and I employed 3 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $3,600 goes:
• Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $1,900
• Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $430
• Shop repairs and licensing: $630
• Working capital for the first month: $640
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
