Timișoara
For six years I have run a fish stall in Timișoara. In July, a break-in 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 2 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 $1,450 goes: • Replacing a freezer and scales: $720 • Initial stock: the first catch: $300 • Shop repairs and licensing: $185 • Working capital for the first month: $245 Thank you for reading my story. - Iulian

    Is there anything that isn't money that would help Iulian?
