For six years I have run a fish stall in Perth. In August, the demolition of the market 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 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $3,600 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $2,500
• Initial stock: the first catch: $420
• Shop repairs and licensing: $320
• Working capital for the first month: $360
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thinking of you, Joyce. Hope you get there. After 8 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Hope the shop reopens soon. Greetings from Pasig
Sending love, Joyce. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Joyce. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Flint
