Njeri needs a freezer and scales to reopen a fish stall
Njeri lost a freezer and scales to floodwater and needs $750 to reopen a fish stall and support the family.

For nine years I have run a fish stall in Likoni. In June, floodwater took a freezer and scales. 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 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 $750 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $420
• Initial stock: the first catch: $135
• Shop repairs and licensing: $90
• Working capital for the first month: $105
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
