Buenos Aires
For fifteen years I have run a flower stall in Buenos Aires. In February, 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 Friday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 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: $580 • Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $135 • Shop repairs and licensing: $145 • Working capital for the first month: $140 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • Small businesses are the heart of Buenos Aires. Hope you're open again soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
