The Perfect Storm
Close to a year ago, after months of searching for a place that we could call home, we stumbled upon the perfect location. A 9,000 square foot property on the Delaware River Waterfront in Historic Bristol, Pa. Having grown up in the area, we had always loved this particular part of town. We immediately saw what we could accomplish here and also truly believed that we could have an impact on the entire community. A few months later, we learned about The Small Business Revolution, and after an unbelievable effort by so many people, the town won the competition and began to garner the attention that it deserves. This accomplishment further solidified what we had already known... The work ahead of us is massive, but so is our potential in this incredible little town that is on the rise!
What We Need & What You Get
We are looking to raise 30k to help with our construction costs. We have 9,000 sq ft of concrete to pour, which brings in an expense that is a little over that number alone... and that's just one of the many tasks ahead. So every dollar counts and it doesn't stop there! The more we raise, the more we can do and the faster we can move! For your generosity, you will receive a number of perks or membership levels listed here, but most importantly, you will be able to say that you played an integral part in building a business. A business that will provide 2 families with 7 children combined a very bright future. A business that plans to drive so much traffic to it's community that every business around will see a boost in revenue from it.
The Community
As mentioned above, we love our community. The support and buzz that surrounds us has not gone unnoticed. We have plans to use local artists for murals throughout the building, to source ingredients from local farms, to partner with local wineries and distilleries, to run multiple fundraising events for local charities and nonprofits, to support our local police, firefighters and EMT's, as well as being heavily involved in the resurgence of our towns business district. This campaign will help us reach all of our goals, much faster than we could without it.
Our Gratitude
We can not thank you enough for even taking the time to check this out, let alone contribute. We sincerely appreciate every dollar. You are what makes all of our hard work worth it.
Even if you can not contribute here, trust me, we understand! You can still help us out by sharing this campaign with your friends and family... That is very much appreciated as well!
Cheers,
Tim Shaw and John Merrick Jr.
