Sew & Sow Needs a New Engine!
Hi! I’m Jake, cousin of Cari Beth Shappell-who poured her blood sweat and tears into her dream when she lost her job due to Covid. She moved back home from Philly to build a mobile boutique and spent countless hours renovating her 1980’s bread van. The interior is absolutely stunning! Unfortunately on a HOT summer day-the old 80’s engine gave out and couldn’t be revived. After the 100s of hours in cosmetic upgrades, starting from scratch wasn’t an option. I’m Cari’s “mechanically inclined” cousin who’s helping her down the path of an engine replacement, which is under way at a local shop here in Mohnton, PA. We are aiming to modernize the mechanical condition of the truck to prevent any future failures. CariBeth has ALWAYS been there to help her friends and family, and couldn’t be a more sweet and generous person. Nows our time to pay it forward. We appreciate the donations! All proceeds will be going directly towards her repairs!
