Papa’s Sweet Treats Fundraiser

Hi my name is Kerri-Anne Ferreira

I need Help for my small business to get established. I have used all my savings so far $14,000 toward it and can’t afford to obtain funding with a loan. My husband was hurt on the job over 2 years ago out on Workers Comp only getting 60% of his paycheck and not able to work to make up the difference. Unfortunately after 20 yrs on State of Massachusetts Job per Union Contract can only be out on Workers Comp 24 months and either go back , retire or resign position. He needs surgery and Workers Comp has been dragging it out almost 3 yrs now so ended up losing his job and health insurance for our family. Attorney states probably won’t be settled for at least a year and can’t afford it any longer. I have 3 disabled dependents at home that my daughter will be assisting me with the business. We have tried applying for Grants but since Covid no chance keep getting denied or pushed toward personal loan. I have so many people calling and inquiring of the service of my Ice Cream Truck and keep telling them it’s coming soon. I know once I can get it completed it will be worth it to us and my small town that hadn’t had the service over 12 years I’ve lived here. I’m hoping that this dream can come true soon for so many I will be so grateful to everybody that is able to assist getting Papa’s Sweet Treats rolling down your streets soon Thank You
