Help Francis restart a flower stall in Takoradi after a fire in the building
A flower stall in Takoradi needs help replacing display cabinets and a cooler after a fire in the building.
🇬🇭 Takoradi, Western, Ghana666 views
For fifteen years I have run a flower stall in Takoradi. In August, 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 Thursday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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 $750 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $520
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $105
• Shop repairs and licensing: $85
• Working capital for the first month: $40
Thanks for being kind about this.

wishing you the best, Francis. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
Sending love, Francis. Looking forward to the next update.
thinking of you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
