Help Shivam restart a neighborhood bakery in Nagpur after a long illness and repossession
Shivam has run a neighborhood bakery for twelve years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $350 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Nagpur. In January, a long illness and repossession took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Thursday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $350 goes:
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $100
• Replacing a commercial oven: $140
• Working capital for the first month: $110
Thanks for reading all this.

You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Comilla
Your post was clear and honest. After 14 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Take care. Hope you make a strong comeback. It's not much but it's yours!
Sending love, Shivam. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
