Help Henok restart a fish stall in Addis Ababa after floodwater

Henok has run a fish stall for twelve years; floodwater destroyed the equipment, and $150 will put it back on its feet.

Addis Ababa
For twelve years I have run a fish stall in Addis Ababa. In June, floodwater took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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 $150 goes: • Initial stock: the first catch: $110 • Working capital for the first month: $25 • Shop repairs and licensing: $15 I hope life is good to you.

  • Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. God bless.

    • Hope it all works out, Henok. Shared this with my family. God bless!

      • Wishing you the best. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Jakarta.

        • Wishing you peace, Henok. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up

          • Hope it all works out, Henok. Shared this with my family. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Addis Ababa.
