Start-up fund for Ssebuliba: reopening a neighborhood bakery after the demolition of the market

For six years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Zanzibar City. In August, the demolition of the market took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, 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 $450 goes: • Replacing a commercial oven: $240 • Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $80 • Shop repairs and licensing: $80 • Working capital for the first month: $50 Thank you for reading my story.
