50% there, 50% to go!

Update #2 · Apr 21, 2012 · comment

Thank you so much for your pledges that have helped us get this far!!  We are excited for the fund raising progress. 

We hope that you, who have already given, may be able to help us again in a different way, as the pace of giving has slowed and the donations are smaller than when we started!  If you haven't already done so and would be willing, we'd appreciate your sharing our campaign with any friend, co-worker or family member who might also share in some aspect of our passion for sustainable, healthy desserts in Eugene and south Eugene.  Word of mouth has always been helpful to us with our unique product!

There are two wonderful incentives for potential givers, other than the new location itself: 1) The rewards! We try to give back so much to a giver that they truly receive value back for their gift, thus spending less than they gave.  And 2) Having a second location will strengthen the foundation of the "Mother Ship" :); meaning Vanilla Jill's will be a stronger company if we have another location with lower overhead, thus ensuring our healthy treats for years to come!

Thank you for your time and VERY generous giving to us!!!  Tim is still making great progress on the cart trailer and we will post a photo this coming week of how it's looking!  All the best,

Tim and Megan Stevens

P.S.  If you haven't given yet, we hope you will be encouraged to now!! :)
