Short Summary

Hello! My name is Ella, and I’m the CEO and Founder of the Posh Teatime Co., a budding social enterprise that promises more than just a cup of tea. My journey began in foster care, a chapter of my life filled with challenges and transformations. It taught me resilience, the value of community, and ignited a passion for empowering others through education and shared experiences. That’s why I’m here – to bring the Posh Teatime Co. to life. It’s not just a tearoom; it’s a space where community, culture, and education blend seamlessly to foster etiquette, life skills, and home economics learning. Our mission is to Educate, Empower and Employee at-risk and former foster care youth. Your donation will help us to continue our mission work!

With your support, we can construct a kitchen, procure the necessary equipment, and create a boutique tearoom that will serve as a beacon of transformation. Your contribution is not just to a business, but to a movement that champions personal and communal growth.

What We Need & What You Get

Our crowdfunding goal is $150,000. This amount will cover the costs of kitchen construction, engineering, and the purchase of state-of-the-art equipment for our boutique tearoom. Here’s a breakdown:

– $75,000 for kitchen construction and engineering.
– $50,000 for kitchen equipment and tearoom furnishings.
– $25,000 for licenses, initial inventory, and opening expenses.

Should we not meet our goal, funds will be allocated to the most critical areas to ensure the project moves forward, such as kitchen construction and licensing.

The Impact

By supporting the Posh Teatime Co., you’re not just funding a tearoom. You’re investing in a community hub that will teach valuable life skills, foster personal growth, and create job opportunities. This project is a testament to the power of transformation – from my own journey in foster care to each individual who will walk through our doors. Your contribution will ripple through the community, providing a space for learning, growth, and connection.

Risks & Challenges

Embarking on this venture comes with its set of challenges, from construction delays to regulatory hurdles. However, my background in overcoming personal and professional obstacles has equipped me with the resilience and problem-solving skills needed to navigate these challenges. We’ve also assembled a team of experienced professionals in construction, culinary arts, and business management to ensure we meet our goals.
