<div>Hi Pizza Family, Chef Ben Osher here. As some of you may have heard, Gorilla Pies has recently suffered some bad luck, and we could really use your help. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On Saturday, June 22nd, our storage trailer was stolen right out from under us. A few days prior, our landlord forced us to move the trailer from its permanent &amp; secure position to the nearby street to allow for a parking lot resurfacing project. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I was conveniently out of town when a thief rolled up and stole it from the street. Unfortunately, no adjacent buildings had any operable cameras covering the location. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anybody with any information can contact:                                Detective Ortiz: 8187548446 / 8187548443
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This trailer stored a variety of expensive equipment, tools, and materials we relied on for our day-to-day operations. All in all, the total cost of property lost is $30,000. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Not only did we lose the items in the trailer, but the trailer itself was our primary storage space for bulky and less frequently used items. Without the space to store these items I will be forced to remove tables from our dining room, and use the space for storage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As I’m sure all of you know, keeping a restaurant open is extremely challenging in today’s economy. When you add on a $30,000 loss, it can be hard– maybe impossible– to recover. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So that’s why I’m reaching out to you– my friends, family, and support system. If you’ve ever spent time at Gorilla Pies, eaten with us, or created memories with us, you know how much I value the incredible community we’ve created here. Whatever you can donate will be deeply appreciated by everyone who loves this place. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for whatever you can donate. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And if you can’t donate, but you’re looking for ways to help out, please spread this message on your socials. Every bit of positive energy and support counts. Get the word out about Gorilla Pies, so we can save this special place. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much, and I hope to deliver a positive update soon.
</div>
<div><br />
