Back to business - Jayden's comeback in Hamilton
Jayden has run a flower stall for six years; the demolition of the market destroyed the equipment, and $3,500 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a flower stall in Hamilton. In April, 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 Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 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 $3,500 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $2,550
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $330
• Shop repairs and licensing: $350
• Working capital for the first month: $270
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Jayden. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Hamilton
Stay strong, Jayden. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Augsburg but we're thinking of you. Take care
Hope it all works out, Jayden. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't give up.
Hang in there, Jayden. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thinking of you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Put this on a community board in Magelang this morning. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Hamilton.
So sorry you're going through this, Jayden. Hope this works out for you. Blessings.
Keep going, Jayden. Hope this works out for you. Blessings!
