<div>Help Launch a Floral Shop + Community Hub on Chicago’s South Side
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hi, I’m Tatiana Williams, a devoted mother of three and the founder of Tatis Floral, a Black woman-owned floral business rooted in Auburn Gresham on Chicago’s South Side.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For years, I’ve brought healing and joy through flowers—creating arrangements for schools, churches, funerals, and community events. But this is bigger than flowers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m transforming a long-abandoned building at 1415 W 79th Street into a vibrant community floral hub—a place where beauty, entrepreneurship, and community will bloom together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⸻
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What We’re Building
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This new space will include:
</div>
<div>	•	A full-service flower shop
</div>
<div>	•	A cozy coffee + coworking café
</div>
<div>	•	Monthly floral workshops and youth programming
</div>
<div>	•	6 leaseable suites for small businesses and sole proprietors
</div>
<div>	•	A community patio, garden space, and seasonal farmers market
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This project is designed for us, by us—to bring life and ownership back to the 79th Street corridor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⸻
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ve Secured the Grant. Now We Need the Bridge.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The City of Chicago has awarded us a $200,000 reimbursable grant to renovate the space—but to activate the funds, I must raise $150,000 in upfront capital by April 10.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ve already received over $50,000 in donated labor, support, and materials from local businesses and community partners. We have approved architectural plans, permits, and momentum. Now we need the last push.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⸻
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As Featured in Block Club Chicago
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This project has already been recognized for its potential to uplift the South Side.

</div>
<div>How You Can Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re asking 3,000 people to give $50, or 1,500 people to give $100, to meet this goal. Your donation will directly support:
</div>
<div>	•	Roof and masonry repair
</div>
<div>	•	Floral cooler installation
</div>
<div>	•	Interior renovation + storefront buildout
</div>
<div>	•	Utilities + startup costs
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Whether you give $25, $100, or simply share this with your network—you’re helping something beautiful take root in a neighborhood that deserves it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⸻
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why This Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our community deserves beauty.
</div>
<div>We deserve safe, inspiring spaces.
</div>
<div>We deserve to bloom where we are planted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping bring this vision to life.
</div>
<div>With gratitude and flowers,
</div>
<div>Tatiana Williams
