Disc Heroes recover from 3 Robberies in 3 weeks
Donation protected
I started this Go Fund to help not just a family business but an important part of the local community. Disc Heroes Comic book and hobby stores are a center of gathering for so many people for gaming, disc golf, and comics. rpgs. Those who frequent the shop can explain how important this place is to those that gather there for gaming, comic book discussions and the disc gold events they run.
Yet, over the past 2 weeks, they have been robbed, and smashed into at night not once, not twice, but on 3 separate occasions. Doors smashed, pried into, broken and the store demolished as they stole thousands and thousands of dollars of product. Many people would say hey, that sucks but that's what insurance is for. Even I thought that at first, but after talking to the owners Im seeing the true struggle they are having.
Insurance deductibles, repairs, and security improvements, not counting the extra costs that go above and beyond are draining this small family-run business. In this economy, all businesses are struggling but to be robbed so many times is killing this shop. Not only do Disc Heroes need our help, but they also need our hope!
Over the past 10 years, I've met thousands of customers there, played games, talked comics, and most importantly made memories. Are there those out there that feel like me and are willing to help?
