Back to business - Julián's comeback in Alcalá de Henares
Julián has run a flower stall for three years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $2,300 will put it back on its feet.

For three years I have run a flower stall in Alcalá de Henares. In May, a break-in took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 3 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $2,300 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $1,150
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $300
• Shop repairs and licensing: $380
• Working capital for the first month: $470
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
