Ruth has run a street-food cart for twelve years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $3,750 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a street-food cart in London. In August, the demolition of the market took a gas stove and two refrigerators. 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 8 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 $3,750 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $660
• Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $2,750
• Working capital for the first month: $340
Every share and every dollar helps.
