Help Bianca & Co Studio Rebuild after Robbery
Donation protected
On Tuesday morning, April 14th-- Nicole, the owner and operator of Bianca & Co a cosmetic tattoo studio in Toronto-- woke up to find her studio had been broken into and robbed.
At present, Nicole and the artists she employs Jay and Izzy , have calculated over $12,000 in stolen goods, including but not limited to:
- Tattoo machines and related equipment
- DSLR camera + lenses
- Dyson air purifier
- Dyson vacuum
- Speakers
- Retail products
- Countless tattoo supplies necessary for operating and servicing clients
A police report has been filed, and they continue to do inventory and discover additional losses. Nicole, Jay and Izzy are also suffering from lost wages due to being unable to work while they try and re-order the supplies necessary for them to operate.
As a friend of Nicole's I have been able to watch her grow as an artist and a business. I have watched her tackle and overcome running her small business through 17 months of lockdowns with grace-- all while hiring and mentoring two artists, Izzy and Jay, who have grown into incredibly talented artists under her mentorship. The three of them make an incredible team and have continued to serve their loyal client base despite the challenges of the past 2+ years.
Small businesses have been deeply affected from the pandemic itself, but this additional blow of property theft and lost wages for Nicole, Izzy and Jay is incomprehensible.
This fundraiser aims to help people who I know would never ask for it -- by raising funds to help Nicole, Jay and Izzy replace their stolen goods (valued at $12,000+) and help support them and their lost wages over the next two weeks with any additional funds raised.
