Help Patcharee restart a small grocery stall in Bangkok after the demolition of the market

Patcharee lost a cold-storage unit to the demolition of the market and needs $550 to reopen a small grocery stall and support the family.

For nine years I have run a small grocery stall in Bangkok. In June, the demolition of the market took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $550 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $135 • Initial stock: fresh produce: $110 • Replacing a cold-storage unit: $305 Thanks for being kind about this. - Patcharee

Updates from Patcharee

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($111 in total) I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Small businesses are the heart of Bangkok. Hope you're open again soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier
