Help me and my family business
We can make it if we work together!
For years we dreamed of being able to one day run our own business, and to be able to build something with our own hands that we could call our own and that could support building a secure future for our son. We always wanted to own our own dessert and coffee shop where we could be a cosy, safe place for our local community; somewhere people could come together and enjoy the quiet moments in life. After years of hard work and late nights we finally made our dream a reality, opening our own café in August 2023. Initially, things went well, but by winter trade had died down significantly, as we struggled to compete with the big names of other well known cafes in our town. We have worked tirelessly for the last few months to get back on track, introducing a new menu to entice more people, as well as throwing a massive effort into getting our social media to work, and while we are making progress, it isn't fast enough to save our little café.
The money we are hoping to raise will be used to pay off our leases for the equipment used in the shop so we work to become profitable going forward
