Adam lost a freezer and scales to floodwater and needs $1,350 to reopen a fish stall and support the family.

For three years I have run a fish stall in Kraków. In November, floodwater took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $1,350 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $960
• Initial stock: the first catch: $135
• Shop repairs and licensing: $255
Every share and every dollar helps.

hope it all works out. Hope you make a strong comeback. Greetings from Birmingham
Take care, Adam. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Kraków.
This could happen to any of us. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Kraków
Thanks for sharing this, Adam. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Yonkers.
Hope things get better soon, Adam. Hope you make a strong comeback. Wish I lived closer to Fresno so I could bring a meal. Love from Guarulhos.
