Tikkun BBQ Spring Fundraiser for 2022
Donation protected
I started Tikkun BBQ from my balcony during the pandemic to support my neighborhood. Tikkun BBQ has accomplished some amazing things since then. Paying for cab rides of the sick or elderly so they could vote, generating thousands in donations for food pantries, mutual aid groups, and nonprofits, supporting local businesses, and bringing together the community during a dark time. Tikkun BBQ has even been mentioned in the press on CBS 2, Patch, got a proclamation from state Senator Michael Gianaris and more.
I did this with minimal resources while simultaneously donating 50% - 100% of all proceeds from Tikkun BBQ events. Some think Tikkun BBQ is a restaurant and don't realize I do this outside of my full-time job. For two years now, I ran Tikkun BBQ using equipment you'd find at Home Depot and borrowing people's cars or riding to Costco on my bicycle to pick up supplies to serve thousands of my neighbors.
Now, as Tikkun BBQ expands in 2022 by purchasing a large smoker from Bison Smokers in Texas and a pick-up truck to tow it, I hope to count on your support.
This Spring (2022), my goal is to raise $4,000 or more in donations by the end of May to...
- Pay the $4,000 balance on the smoker
By having a large smoker, Tikkun BBQ will be able to help even more people. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or feedback, please contact me. Thank you as always for the support, it means the world to me.
Best,
