Help Sakura restart a flower stall in Nagoya after a break-in
Sakura has run a flower stall for four years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $1,750 will put it back on its feet.

For four years I have run a flower stall in Nagoya. In May, 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 Thursday, 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $670
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $330
• Shop repairs and licensing: $390
• Working capital for the first month: $360
Thanks for reading all this.
