For nine years I have run a roadside café in Hyderabad. In June, floodwater took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $500 goes: • Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $90 • Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $370 • Shop repairs and licensing: $40 Thanks for being kind about this.
