Vera lost an espresso machine and grinder to a storm that collapsed the roof and needs $650 to reopen a roadside café and support the family.
Updates from Vera
Wanted to say thank you properly. 21% funded and the plan for replacing an espresso machine and grinder is now scheduled.
Quick update: $79 raised so far (12%). I made the first payment toward replacing an espresso machine and grinder. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
We're at 12% thanks to 2 of you. I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.
