Kalyani needs a commercial oven to reopen a neighborhood bakery
A neighborhood bakery in Mumbai needs help replacing a commercial oven after a long illness and repossession.

For six years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Mumbai. In September, 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 Wednesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $650 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $95
• Replacing a commercial oven: $430
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $125
With deep gratitude,
Kalyani
