Hi, I'm Antonio. For almost 15 years, I've had the privilege of running my cafe here in Bellingham. What started as a small dream has become a community spot where first dates happened, students studied, and neighbors met. And for 12 incredible staff members, it's their livelihood, and they have become like family. 
<br>
<br>
 This year has pushed us to the brink. Between rising costs and a slow season, I've fallen behind, and I'm asking for help to cover our immediate costs and keep all 12 jobs secure. Funds will go toward: 
<ul>
 <li>Payroll</li>
 <li>Payroll taxes</li>
 <li>Rent</li>
 <li>Utilities</li>
</ul>Because these expenses continue week after week and month after month, ongoing support can make a real difference in helping us stay current and keep our staff working. If we raise more than what is needed for the most urgent bills, every extra dollar will go toward the next payroll. 
<br>
<br>
 If you can make a recurring donation, that steady help would mean so much as these costs continue over time. One-time donations are also deeply appreciated and will help right away. If you can't donate, sharing this fundraiser with friends means just as much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting our cafe, our team, and this community. With gratitude, Antonio
