Help Yusuke restart a fish stall in Fukuoka after floodwater
Yusuke lost a freezer and scales to floodwater and needs $1,150 to reopen a fish stall and support the family.
🇯🇵 Fukuoka, Japan1,980 views
For twelve years I have run a fish stall in Fukuoka. In July, floodwater took a freezer and scales. 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 4 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 $1,150 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $560
• Shop repairs and licensing: $290
• Initial stock: the first catch: $300
Thanks for being kind about this.

how is Yusuke doing now?
wishing you the best, Yusuke. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Yusuke?
Thank you. If you're in Fukuoka I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
hope this works out for you. Don't give up. Thinking of Fukuoka.
Keep going. Hope the shop reopens soon. We're a small family in San Diego but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Yusuke. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless
Stay strong. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 6 people at work.
