Sydney

For fifteen years I have run a flower stall in Sydney. In April, a fire in the building took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $2,700 goes: • Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $1,600 • Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $320 • Shop repairs and licensing: $210 • Working capital for the first month: $570 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Elijah
