Start-up fund for Gunawan: reopening a flower stall after a storm that collapsed the roof
Gunawan has run a flower stall for twelve years; a storm that collapsed the roof destroyed the equipment, and $600 will put it back on its feet.

For twelve years I have run a flower stall in Jakarta Selatan. In March, 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 Thursday, 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $600 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $330
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $65
• Shop repairs and licensing: $80
• Working capital for the first month: $125
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending strength, Gunawan. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Accra donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
