Back to business - Sibel's comeback in Konya
Sibel has run a flower stall for six years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $1,000 will put it back on its feet.

For six years I have run a flower stall in Konya. In November, a storm that collapsed the roof 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 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 $1,000 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $560
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $140
• Shop repairs and licensing: $165
• Working capital for the first month: $135
Thanks for reading all this.
