Biratnagar
For twelve years I have run a flower stall in Biratnagar. In July, floodwater 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 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 $400 goes: • Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $220 • Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $75 • Working capital for the first month: $105 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Sunil
