Shuvo has run a small grocery stall for four years; a fire in the building destroyed the equipment, and $250 will put it back on its feet.

For four years I have run a small grocery stall in Gazipur. In January, a fire in the building took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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 $250 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $125
• Shop repairs and licensing: $20
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $105

thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Miami this morning. Thinking of Gazipur!
