For four years I have run a small grocery stall in Sheffield. In August, a break-in took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $4,000 goes: • Replacing a cold-storage unit: $2,450 • Initial stock: fresh produce: $770 • Shop repairs and licensing: $460 • Working capital for the first month: $320 Thank you so much.
