Dear friends, family, and community,

This is one of the hardest messages we’ve ever had to write. For the past nine months, our little restaurant, Giampino’s Italian Cucina, has been a labor of love. We’ve poured our hearts into creating a warm, welcoming place where neighbors can gather, share meals, celebrate milestones, and feel like family.

But right now, we are facing the fight of our lives. Like many small restaurants, we have struggled through rising costs, unpredictable sales, and lingering effects of recent economic challenges. Despite our best efforts—cutting costs, hosting special events, and working endless hours—we have reached a breaking point.

We are now at risk of losing both the restaurant and our home. Our mortgage is overdue and we simply cannot catch up without help.

We are turning to you—our friends, loyal customers, and community—for support.

Your donation will help us:

• Cover our overdue mortgage payments, so we don’t lose the roof over our family’s head.

• Keep Giampino’s alive as a space where people can continue to gather for good food, music, and memories.

• Bridge this critical period while we work on longer-term solutions to stabilize the business.

No gift is too small—every dollar will make a real difference. Even if you can’t give, sharing this page with your friends, family, and social networks means the world to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting us through this incredibly difficult time. We believe that with the strength of this amazing community, Giampino’s and our family can weather this storm.

With gratitude and hope,

Tracy & Jason Marsh
