Kiên needs a cold-storage unit to reopen a small grocery stall
Kiên has run a small grocery stall for three years; a fire in the building destroyed the equipment, and $650 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a small grocery stall in Da Nang. In February, 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 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $650 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $370
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $65
• Shop repairs and licensing: $75
• Working capital for the first month: $140
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Good luck. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Take care, Kiên. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
