Personal message

My name is Robert, before Covid I was running my own Packaging Company supplying to the restaraunts which I inherited from my father just before he passed away. After my father passed away I was left with my wife, three kids, mother and grandmother to take care of, I had just taken out a loan from the FNB to carry my business through the festive season and then Covid struck. Everything was closed and no business, I was forced to use my business money to support my family while no funds were coming in. When everything repopened my existing customers refused to support me with cod orders and wanted 30 days payment and because I couldn't they dropped me. I lost my whole business in one day, I slipped into depression for a few months and if it weren't for my wife, three kids and my mother, I would have given up on life. So I tried a few things, custom fish tanks, delivering for takealot, welding and gardening services. But nothing was successful, One day my eldest son 10 years of age came to me one day and recomended that I start an e-commerce store, hence why I need the funds to provide the products and at least try to change our situation around. We lost our home, vehicle and our Grandmother. I still owe FNB R120000 which I know God will make a way for me to pay off one day through the new e-commerce store. All I want to do is provide a good life for my family, no luxuries or anything like that. Just to get the e-commerce store running and get funds coming in so I can pay off FNB, and we are currently renting a place on a Farm which we love because it's the simple life we want which is peaceful. Please any donation is much appreciated, and it would really mean alot to my family and I and will change our lives completely for the better, we are a family of sobar habbits, we don't drink, smoke, party, club, drugs. Nothing of that sort, we are a God Fearing Family. The funds that we recieve will go straight into starting up the e-commerce store and what ever else I need to maintain it and if there is anything spare I will use it towards the FNB loan. 
E-commerce store Subscription monthly: R875
Advertising for Google ads, Facebook ads, Pintrest Ads: R10000
Products to buy and to supply to Takealot: R30000
The balance to keep buying more stock to keep the orders coming in. We are praying for a miracle and a financial breakthrough every since I lost my father 6 years ago. To everyone that assists and can help us no matter the amount big or small, we thank you all with all our heart and pray that God will shower his blessings apon you all. God Bless, Baker Family.
