<div>Hi everyone,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name’s Ayesha, and I’m the new owner of Rito’s Cafe &amp; Continental on Beach Road, Christies Beach.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I never thought I’d be writing this.
</div>
<div>I never wanted to ask for help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For the past few months, I’ve been fighting quietly behind the scenes through lawyers, through negotiations, trying to keep Rito’s alive without needing to involve anyone else.
</div>
<div>I believed if I just worked harder, I could save it myself.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But it’s reached a point where I can’t do it alone anymore.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve been given 7 days to come up with the outstanding amount (including landlord legal fees) or Rito’s will close its doors.
</div>
<div>It got to the point where my legal costs would have outweighed the actual debt itself.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Beach Road businesses are struggling — and I didn’t want Rito’s to be another empty shopfront.
</div>
<div>We’re part of the community, and we want to stay part of the community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m not asking for handouts.
</div>
<div>I’m asking for a chance to fight.
</div>
<div>A chance to keep something real and good alive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every dollar raised will go directly toward:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Covering urgent legal costs and landlord fees
</li>
<li>Keeping the cafe open while we push through this critical time
</li>
<li>Giving Rito’s a real fighting chance for a strong 2025 and beyond
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you can spare the cost of a coffee, a sandwich, a share, it truly makes a difference.
</div>
<div>Even $5 brings us closer to saving Rito’s.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for giving us hope.
</div>
<div>Thank you for believing in small business.
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping save a piece of Christies Beach.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are fighting.
</div>
<div>We are not done yet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>❤️ Ayesha
</div>
