Tanvi lost a cold-storage unit to a break-in and needs $550 to reopen a small grocery stall and support the family.

For six years I have run a small grocery stall in Agra. In August, a break-in took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $550 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $320
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $85
• Shop repairs and licensing: $60
• Working capital for the first month: $85
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

so sorry you're going through this, Tanvi. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Agra.
wishing you peace. Hope you make a strong comeback. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
