Here’s a great story from Ferguson - which is something you haven’t heard too often lately. Local bakery Natalie’s Cakes & More was smashed by knuckleheads that
weren’t able to focus their anger and disapproval in a more creative fashion. Last night I asked friends if they had seen any funds started for local businesses damaged by the rioting and looting. They pointed me to Natalie’s - and what did I see? To date over 4,000 people donating over $130K, that’s what.
How great is that? People voluntarily helping clean up the mess the Ferguson government and the knuckleheads trashing the placed made.
Also, if you see other funds started for local businesses in the Ferguson area, post them if you can!
This is the best story I’ve heard from Ferguson yet. Thanks peonyandbee for the link.
Natalie’s Cakes & More has hit over a quarter of a million dollars! That’s over twelve times the requested amount. I’m amazed by people’s generosity! While I’m sure Natalie is completely deserving of it, there are some other businesses that could also use our assistance. I don’t know the owners, so I can’t vouch for their integrity, but here are a few I noted on GoFundMe:
There are also Ferguson Market & Liquor, Solo Insurance, and Beauty World. There may be more in the days to come. Click on the Location or Emergencies sections in the upper right hand corner to see what other projects in the area or of the same kind are in need of funding. Bless you all!
if you need binders/breast forms/makeup/etc but don’t want your parents to know, now is the best time to get it.
you can order whatever it is online and when the package comes in if the ask what it is you can say something like “it’s a secret!” or even just sssh them. they’ll assume it’s a present for whatever holiday you celebrate and probably won’t press the issue.
