Fundraiser for Bradshaw Social House Employees

Donation protected
33 Bradshaw employees were given sudden notice this week that their store was closing for an unknown period of time due to the Coronavirus and they would have to file for unemployment. If they file today, it will still be late next week, at best, before they receive anything from the government.   Mark and I are loyal customers of Bradshaws and we've become friends with ya'll seeing this.  I've also worked in the restaurant industry and I have known a lot of employees who survive check to check and have to manage the cash monies they bring in daily to pay bills. So for their livelihood to be cut off so abruptly must leave them shell shocked. I've seen posts encouraging people to order take out and to tip the servers or to buy gift cards. I support that as well, but Bradshaws is completely closed down and 33 awesome people have been adversely affected. I think all of us have wanted to reach out to our favorites to make sure they're doing ok, so I decided to take it one step further and show them. My goal is to raise $ 200 for every person in the store by this Sunday so that I can give them the money next week as a token of everyone's support. I plan to only raise $ 200 x 33 = $ 6600 x 2.9% gofundme fee ($191.40) + 30 cents per transaction so I'll round up to $ 6825. I'm capping it at that amount. Hopefully if we can get everyone a little money right now, it will hold them over until they start receiving their unemployment checks. I am a very honest person and I will post when and where I am giving out the monies to the employees and I will have a Bradshaw rep there to make sure everyone signs for their allotment. So if you love Bradshaws and you want their team to know you care, contribute what you would have probably tipped them this weekend anyways. It's a great cause! Please share this post with other Bradshaw regulars. I realize I may have invited friends that are in the service industry too and having the same issues. We are praying for you as well. For those not in the service industry and are doing okay right now, don't think about it, just donate now so we can get them some money in their hands asap. Thanks friends!
