Susanne needs a gas stove and two refrigerators to reopen a street-food cart

A street-food cart in Düsseldorf needs help replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators after a storm that collapsed the roof.

Düsseldorf
For four years I have run a street-food cart in Düsseldorf. In January, a storm that collapsed the roof took a gas stove and two refrigerators. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 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. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $2,700 goes: • Replacing a gas stove and two refrigerators: $2,000 • Initial stock: ingredients: $430 • Working capital for the first month: $270 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Susanne

      gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Gold Coast so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Düsseldorf.

            Thinking of you, Susanne. Shared this with my family. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
