Monique Siu for OK OMENS

As many of you know, our dear friend and iconic Portland restauranteur, Monique Siu has closed Cafe Castagna and is launching a new restaurant in its place - OK Omens. Here's some of the press around it > http://www.oregonlive.com/dining/index.ssf/2018/05/ok_omens_brings_natural_wine_p.html

This is a big leap for Monique at this point of her career, and we all know that she'll give this new concept everything she's got and more. Can we pull together and help her launch this business? She's come up a bit short in her fundraising, and is not one to ask for help - so I'd like to surprise her with a nice little chunk of money with no strings attached. This is not an investment with a return other than knowing we helped out a wonderful human being and dear friend.

I'm asking for donations of either $500 or $1000, with the intent of hitting the $10,000 mark. If you would like to give more than $1000, that would be stellar/fantastic/amazing/generous/all of the above.

I'd love to have the money in hand to give to her by June 1st.

Thanks in advance for all who give. Y'all are wonderful!
