Skylar needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
Skylar has run a flower stall for four years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $3,400 will put it back on its feet.

For four years I have run a flower stall in Bellevue. In August, a storm that collapsed the roof 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 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 4 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 $3,400 goes:
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $580
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $2,250
• Shop repairs and licensing: $570
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you, Skylar. Your post was clear and honest.
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 28 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
