Zbigniew has run Star Deli for 30 years in Greenpoint, Brooklyn—a family owned Polish deli/bakery that makes everything fresh. No plastic wrap, no preservatives, no shortcuts. His freezer is breaking down. For a small business already struggling to compete with big grocery stores, an equipment failure like this can be the difference between staying open and closing for good.

A few weeks ago, Star Deli had 17 Google reviews and no social media presence. After a video about Zbigniew's story went viral, the community showed up. Now this place has 250+ Google reviews and business has improved. But a viral moment is a boost, not a solution. Zbigniew needs equipment that works so he can keep doing what he's done for 30 years, feeding this neighborhood with food made with real love.

Every dollar goes directly to Zbigniew. Any funds beyond the freezer will go toward other repairs the shop urgently needs. Your support will help keep a beloved neighborhood deli and bakery open and thriving.
