BB's Cafe

We have been ready to have our own location to shoot content for the website and what's in demand for the cooking experience.  We are ready to GROW!

We've hosted these mini experiences in private homes for about a year and managed to grow our community education partners cooking class businesses and found that our members prefer business locations.  However, we can not afford to produce at the level required to scale the business as we have to pay for the location and the crew costs.  We are ready to serve our customers request for video content and to purchase related products.   We have discovered the best way to do this is by having a space where we can legally sell while engaging in cooking demonstrations.  

This campaign is so that we can raise the 10% required for a small business loan to purchase our own location.  

We are bootstrapped and have put 1000% into growing to this point and received numerous accolades, however, we can not grow fast enough to meet the demands of our market.  We are asking for your support to keep going and to open this location.  I, Lauren Foster am personally without parents to support me.  I am asking for your support now so that I can continue to be self-reliant and serve my customers with what they want before I lose them.  

I'm a hard worker as evidenced by my success.  For the past 36 months I have been focused on building partnerships and validating the marketplace for my ideas.  We've won the Tech Crunch pitch off Audience Choice Award in Austin, the Audience Choice for IBM's SXSW New Way to Start Up Competition, we were one of the top 5 Social Entrepreneurs selected for New Way to Start Up, and we are a UT Food Lab Finalist and UnLtd USA finalist.  

We just need this boost to secure the business as the bank requires 10% down.  Please fund me!
