For fifteen years I have run a street-food cart in Alcalá de Henares. In July, the demolition of the market 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 Thursday, and I employed 2 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 $1,900 goes:
• Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $670
• Initial stock: ingredients: $570
• Shop repairs and licensing: $380
• Working capital for the first month: $280
With deep gratitude,
Hamza

Wishing you the best, Hamza. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Stay strong, Hamza. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
Keep going, Hamza. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Adama.
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 16 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Hanoi.
