Ali needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
Ali has run a flower stall for six years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $500 will put it back on its feet.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Egypt1,558 views
For six years I have run a flower stall in Cairo. In July, a long illness and repossession took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Thursday, 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $500 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $65
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $340
• Working capital for the first month: $95
Glad we found this place.
