WOW! Y'all are incredible! We greatly appreciate all of the donations! Please know we'd LOVE to thank each of you individually but not sure we could do so in a timely manner. We'll keep you posted on our repair progress, hopefully in the very near future. Again THANK YOU for all of your support!

***Just an FYI as a few have asked about the goal amount changing. GoFundMe recommends to allow them to do automatic goal setting as donations come in, so we went with their suggestion. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. PLEASE KNOW we greatly appreciate all of the support we've received, every dollar will help us to at a minimum do the needed repairs on our walkin cooler and we thank you very much!***

We find ourselves in a position where we need some help to get through this challenge. Asking for assistance is not something we do lightly, but the urgency of these repairs means we must reach out. If you are able to help us, we would greatly appreciate it. We know times are tough so if you're not able to help we appreciate your time in reading about our current challenge. Thank you for considering our request for assistance and for being a loyal customer, we look forward to seeing you again soon!
