Manuel needs a gas stove and two refrigerators to reopen a street-food cart
A street-food cart in Rosario needs help replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators after the demolition of the market.
🇦🇷 Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina770 views
For nine years I have run a street-food cart in Rosario. In December, the demolition of the market took a gas stove and two refrigerators. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 3 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 $900 goes:
• Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $520
• Initial stock: ingredients: $140
• Shop repairs and licensing: $50
• Working capital for the first month: $190
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
