My name is Missi, and I've been in the coffee industry for over 15 years. Two of the questions I get asked the most are:

1) When are you going to open a coffee shop?

and

2) Where people can find the best coffee wherever they are

Last year, I answered both of those questions.

I created and launched a specialty coffee shop finder app called Tampd, and then soft-launched a specialty coffee pop up called Lenora's.

So if I've launched both, why a fundraiser?

I was able to produce the funds to launch the first version of Tampd, and am continuing to make monthly payments of over $1000. All of the current income being produced from app subscriptions is going directly to those payments.

The next step is to get Lenora's up and running, but I need a cart! The cart I'm looking at is from a company called Cartssify and will cost a total of $3,000 after shipping. Then, I will be able make a deposit and start paying rent on a commissary kitchen which will then allow me to apply for health permits. Once approved, the money will go towards paying for all of that.

Thank you to everyone for supporting me in getting everything up and running, and helping these dreams come to life <3
