Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yoko.
Sure. The biggest one is initial stock: fresh produce, $560. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.
Praying for you, Yoko. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Kobe.
Stay strong, Yoko. Small businesses are the heart of Kobe. Hope you're open again soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Kobe.
hope it all works out, Yoko. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Yoko?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about initial stock: fresh produce, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.
small businesses are the heart of Kobe. Hope you're open again soon. Greetings from Quetta.

Any update on how things are going in Kobe?
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of Kobe.
Hope things get better soon, Yoko. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
