Start-up fund for Dola: reopening a street-food cart after a storm that collapsed the roof

For three years I have run a street-food cart in Rajshahi. In August, a storm that collapsed the roof 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 Thursday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 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 $450 goes: • Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $340 • Initial stock: ingredients: $40 • Shop repairs and licensing: $30 • Working capital for the first month: $40 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Dola
