Help Irfan restart a neighborhood bakery in Faisalabad after a storm that collapsed the roof
A neighborhood bakery in Faisalabad needs help replacing a commercial oven after a storm that collapsed the roof.
🇵🇰 Pakistan767 views
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Faisalabad. In October, a storm that collapsed the roof took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $400 goes:
• Replacing a commercial oven: $250
• Shop repairs and licensing: $40
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $110
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
