Help Damo BBQ Overcome Opening Delays

Hi, my name is Jeannie Valera, and several years ago, I met Danny & Maggie Orlando when looking for a bourbon barrel bar, and we became instant friends. I have been with them as they began their dream of DAMO BBQ. They are the two hardest working and kindest people I have ever met in my life. They inspire me to work harder on my small business. Over the years, we have partnered on some collaborations on the pop-ups that they did. I was so excited when they told me they were going to have a permanent brick-and-mortar location, DAMO BBQ Butchery and Boutique.

Unfortunately, they have encountered a lot of unexpected obstacles when they were getting ready to open in December of 2024. And as of Feb 20, 2025, they still haven't been allowed to open. Not only did they have all of the supplies purchased for the opening, but they have had to turn away all of their Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year/holiday, Super Bowl, and large corporate orders for the last three months.

They are trying so hard to work with the city and everyone to get whatever is needed to get done. But they need our help. They have all their new inventory and equipment just sitting there and are unable to make any money back to pay for them. They self-funded this project all by themselves and are a month away from having to throw the towel in. Whatever you can give will definitely help!
