For nine years I have run a flower stall in Tlaquepaque. In August, 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 Wednesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $800 goes: • Shop repairs and licensing: $130 • Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $440 • Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $230 I hope life is good to you.

Thank you all. We're at 35% now ($280). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts.
