Start-up fund for Imam: reopening a neighborhood bakery after a fire in the building

For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Bandung. In March, a fire in the building took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 2 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 $350 goes: • Replacing a commercial oven: $165 • Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $55 • Shop repairs and licensing: $75 • Working capital for the first month: $55 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
