Help Viviane restart a neighborhood bakery in Recife after the demolition of the market
Viviane lost a commercial oven to the demolition of the market and needs $850 to reopen a neighborhood bakery and support the family.
🇧🇷 Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil1,524 views
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Recife. In May, the demolition of the market 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 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 $850 goes:
• Replacing a commercial oven: $270
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $260
• Shop repairs and licensing: $80
• Working capital for the first month: $240
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Viviane!
You're not alone, Viviane. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Chattogram
rooting for you, Viviane. This could happen to any of us. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family, Viviane. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
This could happen to any of us. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Lapu-Lapu.
