Support a Family's Dream: Save Our Cafe

We would appreciate your help. Our business is Mt. Juliet's first and only French-Filipino cafe & patisserie, and we need to raise AT LEAST $8000 by April 5th to keep its doors open. This family business (a mother and her two daughters) has created quite a buzz in the community we have served for four months now, but of course, it is still in the early seed stage.

We see this seed's potential and want to keep watering it until it is self-sustaining. A lot has been poured into it, including working long hours, early mornings to late nights, time and patience in training all employees, creative ideas, sacrifices, and money. We all know that money doesn't grow on trees, and it does take time for a new business to get its return on investment.

As much as we're motivated to keep going, our resources have reached its limit. We are unable to keep up with its bills, such as rent and what has been spent for the deconstruction of what used to be a pharmacy and construction to build it into the beautiful cafe it is as it stands now. This is why we need your help. The vision we believe God gave us is to be able to not only serve our community with good food but also host events such as fundraisers meant to help nonprofits and support good causes. We support JPM (feeding the homeless) and Women of Worth (helping incarcerated women who served their time to start a new life alongside therapy, Bible studies, and one-on-one mentorship). The vision is also to host Bible study groups, as well as friends and families who want to build great memories in the space we've purposely built with tasteful art and a peaceful ambiance. We'd love you to be part of this solution to help us stay open.
