Hi, my name is Tommy Côté,

I live in Edmonton, Alberta, and for the past 6 years, I’ve been raising five children on my own.

Every day, I give everything I have to provide them with stability, dignity, and hope.

Now, I’m ready to go one step further —

to build a real future for them, with my own hands.

THE DREAM

I want to transform my garage into a small, clean production workshop where I’ll create eco-friendly, 100% Canadian products — responsibly and locally made.

This isn’t about surviving anymore.

It’s about creating something valuable, sustainable, and lasting — a business with real purpose.

⚠️ The concept I’m working on is original and not yet legally protected, so I can’t share everything publicly yet.

But I promise — you’ll be the first to see it once it’s secured.

WHAT I NEED

To turn this empty garage into a functioning workshop, I need essential tools and materials:

️ Production

Hydraulic press (25–50 tons, 110V)

Manual hand press

Custom metal molds (blocks, cups, briquettes)

Sewing & Textiles

Industrial sewing machine

Natural fabrics (hemp, cotton, canvas)

Professional scissors, clamps, templates

️ Processing & Drying

Chest freezer (for natural sterilization)

Food-grade dehydrator

Precision scale, thermometer, hygrometer

Packaging

Vacuum sealer

Kraft boxes, cotton bags, eco string

Label printer or custom stamps

Workshop Setup

Solid worktables

Storage shelves, LED lights

Safety gear (gloves, goggles, extractor)

With just 100 people giving $20, I could acquire the tools I need to begin production — and take this dream from blueprint to reality.

WHAT’S NEXT

‍⚖️ I’ve scheduled a legal consultation for July 7, 2025, at 10:00 A.M.

with one of Alberta’s leading intellectual property law firms — to begin protecting my concept and preparing for the next step.

After that, I’ll share full updates, photos of every purchase, and the first prototypes made in the workshop.

You’ll see exactly where your support goes — dollar by dollar.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

If you can donate — thank you from the bottom of my heart.

If you can share this page with your network — it means the world.

If you believe in honest, local, sustainable creation — please leave a message of support.

AFTER SIX YEARS ALONE…

I’m not asking for a handout.

I’m asking for a chance to build something that lasts —

For my kids.

For our future.

And for a world that needs more real, responsible creators.

Let’s build this together.

With gratitude,

Tommy Côté
