Blogging for Bunso Jean

What you are seeing here is an empty sari sari shop owned by World Sisters United and run by bunso Jean. Seeing it in this state makes me want to cry. A good sari sari shop in the Philippines can be like a central nervous system of a small town or village. Lots of people hanging out, eat, drinking, laughing and having good company. This particular shop I paid to have built about a year ago. It cost about $1100us for this shop built in a squatters village in Manila. As you can see this shop is now empty and lifeless. I have bought stock for this shop three or four times now, I can't actually remember how many times. We can't keep the shop in stock cause the mother of Bunso Jean is so kind she simply gives the stock away to all her neighbors who are also her relatives. So the shop is now empty again and I'm completely broke. We are seeking some kind soul out there that can help us out with a donation to restock and try to jump start a small family with the business that put food on the table. We are working on a new approach with rules such as "no free food". Hopefully that will help keep a basic flow of stock going. We have seen this location very active and profitable. It's just that the mother of Bunso Jean is very kind hearted and doesn't think like a mercantile minded person. She just wants to give it all away. We will try to keep her focused on being the wonderful host that she is and leave the money management to others. This is an honest request coming on behalf of really really good honest people. I can personally vouch for Bunso Jean and her family. Contact me at larriji@gmail.com
