Rosa needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
Rosa has run a flower stall for twelve years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $700 will put it back on its feet.
🇦🇷 Buenos Aires, Argentina752 views
For twelve years I have run a flower stall in La Plata. In September, 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 Sunday, and I employed 3 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 $700 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $420
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $125
• Shop repairs and licensing: $70
• Working capital for the first month: $85
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
