<div>Since opening in 2020, during prime-time pandemic, we've seen success, expansion, and gathered a wonderful dedicated community that we are so thankful for, but we have also faced many challenging obstacles that have started to stack up. We are grateful for everyone's ongoing support &amp; would love to continue providing delicious vegan food and a warm welcoming space for all, but we need some help. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have leveraged everything we have to build and grow this business and we are now stretched very thin. Several unexpected expenses, price increases, supply chain issues, and construction/renovation going off timeline and over budget has lead us into a tight spot financially. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We had to pause further construction on the expansion when a new health inspector visited us and told us about all kinds of changes we needed to make to be up to code- things that were not mentioned in previous inspections. We spent thousands to put in new equipment that also required plumbing and electrical work. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have also recently learned that we may need to replace our air conditioning and refrigeration units any day now, two issues that are incredibly expensive and would bring business to a stop immediately. We are unsure of how we will get the funds and keep the doors open if/when this happens. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Apothica Cafe is humbly asking for donations to help us stay in business. We have genuinely enjoyed providing high quality 100% vegan food and a unique welcoming environment over the last 4 years and would love to continue. Any amount you can donate is dearly appreciated. All funds will go towards paying down debts and updating equipment to keep us going.

<div>Thank you
