Help Ida restart a flower stall in Dresden after a break-in

Ida has run a flower stall for three years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $2,500 will put it back on its feet.

Dresden
For three years I have run a flower stall in Dresden. In July, a break-in took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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 $2,500 goes: • Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $650 • Shop repairs and licensing: $470 • Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $1,380 If you're reading this, thank you. - Ida
