Depok
For three years I have run a street-food cart in Depok. In February, a long illness and repossession 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 Monday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $200 goes: • Initial stock: ingredients: $50 • Shop repairs and licensing: $35 • Working capital for the first month: $115 Thank you so much. - Slamet

        Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Kaduna donated after I showed her your page.

        • take care, Slamet. Shared it with a few friends

          • You're not alone, Slamet. Hope you make a strong comeback. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

            • Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Depok.

              • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Depok!

                • Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about initial stock: ingredients, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.

                Keep going, Slamet. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.

                • Good luck, Slamet. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Depok.

                  • This could happen to any of us. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Aurora

                    • Take care, Slamet. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from 6th of October City.
