Hi, wonderful people! It's Kevin (Squirrel!).
Like so many independently owned small businesses across the country, Broken Seal Buttons has been struck with hardships caused by COVID-19. Broken Seal has been making buttons for the Bay Area and beyond since 2012. We deeply want to keep growing and do more for all the amazing people and communities we have been honored to help and serve! Over the last 8 years, it has been amazing to be able to make buttons for artists, Museums, Queers, POC, and all the diverse communities of the Bay Area! As well as other small businesses, social activists, and people who just had a random idea that they wanted on a button has been so amazing!
I have resisted sending out a call for help as long as possible. (Also to be totally honest, asking people for help makes me *very* uncomfortable.) But it has become increasingly clear that Broken Seal Buttons does need help. And if I can't find the courage to ask for help, then this business that has been built and grown with the effort and love of so many may disappear.
We have always tried to be accessible to as many people as possible! And as a small business, we don't have a lot of extra cash on hand. And it has come to the point we are scraping the bottom of the barrel and really need help and love!
I am hoping to raise funds to cover the losses over the last half year and to make sure we keep going!
---Rent and utilities
---Payments for monthly installments for machinery and equipment
---And finally, PARTS! Such as button parts, ink, and paper.
Even if we do not meet our full goal, anything of what is raised will help! It will allow us to pay our rent and bills, and get the parts we need to keep going into the next year. If you can help, please do! The crew and I will be so grateful! And if you are unable, please share this with someone you think might be interested in helping!
Be well, be safe, be loved! Oh! And YAY BUTTONS!
