For four years I have run a small grocery stall in Málaga. In July, 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 Tuesday, 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. I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go. Where the $1,600 goes: • Initial stock: fresh produce: $270 • Replacing a cold-storage unit: $1,150 • Shop repairs and licensing: $180 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Rosa

      Sure. The biggest one is initial stock: fresh produce, $270. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.
