Ines has run a roadside café for fifteen years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $500 will put it back on its feet.

Heliopolis
For fifteen years I have run a roadside café in Heliopolis. In November, a break-in took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $500 goes: • Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $280 • Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $105 • Shop repairs and licensing: $90 • Working capital for the first month: $25 Every share and every dollar helps. - Ines
