Héctor needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
A flower stall in Irapuato needs help replacing display cabinets and a cooler after floodwater.
🇲🇽 Guanajuato, Mexico2,382 views
For three years I have run a flower stall in Irapuato. In March, 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 Tuesday, 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.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $670
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $150
• Shop repairs and licensing: $130
• Working capital for the first month: $200
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

rooting for you. Hope you get there. Greetings from Mumbai.
Thinking of you and your family, Héctor. Hope the shop reopens soon. All the best.
hope it all works out, Héctor. Hope you make a strong comeback.
thinking of you and your family, Héctor. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Irapuato.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
