Start-up fund for Marcel: reopening a flower stall after a long illness and repossession
Marcel has run a flower stall for four years; a long illness and repossession destroyed the equipment, and $3,750 will put it back on its feet.
Updates from Marcel
Update from Nuremberg: I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. We're at 15% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($376 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Take care, Marcel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
You're not alone, Marcel. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Petrópolis but we're thinking of you. God bless!
