Adewale needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
Adewale has run a flower stall for nine years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $550 will put it back on its feet.

For nine years I have run a flower stall in Ikeja. In August, the demolition of the market took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $550 goes:
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $50
• Shop repairs and licensing: $60
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $440
Thanks for being kind about this.
