Help Kendall restart a fish stall in San Antonio after a long illness and repossession
Kendall has run a fish stall for twelve years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $5,300 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a fish stall in San Antonio. In August, a long illness and repossession took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Friday, 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 $5,300 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $3,400
• Initial stock: the first catch: $600
• Shop repairs and licensing: $540
• Working capital for the first month: $760
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
