Help Kumara restart a fish stall in Galle after a break-in
A fish stall in Galle needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a break-in.

For nine years I have run a fish stall in Galle. In January, 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 Saturday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $450 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $110
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $200
• Shop repairs and licensing: $140
With deep gratitude,
Kumara
