Hi !
This is Susan from the owner here at Starv'n Marv'ns.
We have been working on some exciting things, and thought it would be good to share with you.
Most of our community probably have heard that we are second chance employer. We are purpose driven here intentionally transforming lives and renewing our community. There has been remarkable , beautiful and amazing transformations so far . We want there to be many, many more .
This last 18 months have been roller coaster ride ..ups and downs twist and turns . There is something way beyond me ( us) that drives us forward in the mission..and purpose here .
The purpose here isn't about just learning what it takes to be successful in a workplace, although that is part of it . It isn't just about learning to value and love the people in our lives, although that is part of it ..its about investing in the lives of the people we are blessed with . Its not a program..its a life long commitment to make a lasting impact . Rooted and grounded in love.
I am pleased to announce that our non-profit..the Bruised Reed foundation has obtained the 501 C3 needed to be recognized as a legitimate non-profit. For years and especially the last 18 months non profit work has been going on within the for profit Starv'n Marvin's. The nonprofit model has been proven effective here , years of many lasting transformations. Restaurant margins are very tight and just doesn't support the outreach we've been doing. We aim to level up in order to help the ones that need it most in our community inside and outside of Starv'n Marvin's with every aspect of becoming secure and successful members of our community.
If you are looking for a cause to support,
I encourage you to check out the Bruised Reed foundation website. As always the best way to support our mission is to come in and let us serve you. Its an honor for us to do that . When a community links arms amazing things happen. All donations are tax deductible
