Start-up fund for Jun: reopening a street-food cart after a storm that collapsed the roof
Jun lost a gas stove and two refrigerators to a storm that collapsed the roof and needs $250 to reopen a street-food cart and support the family.

For six years I have run a street-food cart in Cebu City. In July, 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 Monday, 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.
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: $105
• Initial stock: ingredients: $65
• Working capital for the first month: $80
Thank you so much.
