When she lost her mother, her biggest inspiration and supporter, a little over a month ago, Natalia Robinson drained most of her savings for the funeral expenses. Nevertheless, using the last of her resources – her savings had been meant for her business – and mustering her faith and persistence, she opened Churros by Mama on April 26.
Robinson confided to Stabroek Weekend that on the Monday morning when she opened she had only $200 and was looking at rent for the Third Street, Alberttown business due the following Monday. Fortunately, the churros went fast and she was able to meet her obligations.
