Help Kaan restart a small grocery stall in Antalya after a break-in
Kaan lost a cold-storage unit to a break-in and needs $800 to reopen a small grocery stall and support the family.
🇹🇷 Antalya, Antalya, Türkiye228 views
For twelve years I have run a small grocery stall in Antalya. In October, a break-in took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 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 $800 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $540
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $135
• Working capital for the first month: $125
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Hope things get better soon, Kaan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
Take care, Kaan. Shared this with my family. Blessings
