Skippers Smokehouse Employee Relief Help

Donation protected
We have been very hesitant to start a fundraising campaign such as this, but the time has come for us to ask for help for our beloved family a/k/a employees. After decades of hosting fundraiser after fundraiser and making charitable contributions to businesses and citizens of the Tampa Bay area, we humbly ask for your consideration in contributing a tip that fits within your budget for our mullets (employees). We've never taken the time to "tally up" all of the monies raised for causes through Skipper's but over the course of nearly 40 years we know it is well over a million bucks and now we ask for a few bucks back. 

Skipper's, like MANY other small businesses applied for all of the loans, grants, etc and like MANY other small businesses have not seen a dime of the PPP monies. Our furloughed employees have applied for unemployment - we all know the current state of unemployment woes in Florida right now so that is primarily a dead end street for them thus far. 100% of the monies collected through this campaign will be allocated to our staff. 

Our doors closed the third week in March as it did not make fiscal sense to remain open with take out only. We desperately want to open up again... and we will as soon as it is safe. 

Please consider helping us keep smokin' everything for another 40 years! We are grateful for your consideration.
