I'm Ireva, and I'm building The Short List—a neighborhood directory designed to connect people with real, nearby businesses. Every neighborhood has its own trusted list of providers, passed along through word of mouth, but it's never been searchable for everyone. With The Short List, you can search by zip code and find the closest businesses, ranked by honest distances, so you always know exactly how far your options are. No middleman markups, no shared leads—just genuine connections to local providers.

I'm raising funds to help launch this platform and prove the model with the first 50 businesses. Your support will cover building the platform, outreach to local businesses, and onboarding them into the directory. This will create a trustworthy, searchable resource for our community, making it easier for everyone to find reliable, nearby services. By supporting The Short List, you're helping bring transparency and real connections to neighborhoods everywhere.

I believe in the power of community and local businesses, and I'm asking for your help to make this vision a reality. Your contribution will help launch The Short List and make it easier for neighbors to find trusted providers. Thank you for supporting this project and helping build something truly valuable for communities everywhere.
