Start-up fund for Jordan: reopening a roadside café after a fire in the building

For six years I have run a roadside café in London. In August, a fire in the building took an espresso machine and grinder. 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 8 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 $2,250 goes: • Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $1,050 • Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $590 • Shop repairs and licensing: $185 • Working capital for the first month: $425 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Jordan
