For three years I have run a fish stall in Hanoi. In July, the demolition of the market took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $250 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $55 • Initial stock: the first catch: $105 • Working capital for the first month: $90 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Thinking of you and your family, Hà. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
