Back to business - Óscar's comeback in Greensboro
A flower stall in Greensboro needs help replacing display cabinets and a cooler after a long illness and repossession.

For fifteen years I have run a flower stall in Greensboro. In August, 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 Saturday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $2,550 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $1,600
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $350
• Shop repairs and licensing: $320
• Working capital for the first month: $280
Glad we found this place.

Stay strong, Óscar. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Chicago.
