Help save JordyCakes!

I am saddened to say that JordyCakes, the business that I have been building since I was 16 years old, is about to lose its battle to Covid-19....

All the sacrifice, the tears the long nights, not being with my kids, bringing them to work, strapping them to my chest….

It’s just crazy to think it could all be for nothing.

Over the two years since we have been in a global pandemic, for several months we were required to shelter in place. A full year of homeschooling. Weeks my kids were sick, weeks daycare was overcrowded or shut down because other children were sick, months my customers needed refunds due to their venues cancelling. Weeks I myself suffered from Covid and had to close my shop and keep my kids home from school. Falling behind in rent was inevitable. And although my landlords assured me that I would be able to pay my back rent from quarantine at the end of my 3 year lease, last week they served me with a 5 day notice before they start the eviction process.

I truly do not want to be another statistic. More than 600,000 small businesses have permanently closed since the pandemic began. I don't want to be in that number.

Like all businesses- I have had to pivot as a result of the current state of our world. Last year I created the first ever cake jar vending machine for my signature product "JordyJars". I am now in talks to get more machines and put them in high traffic areas like the malls and airports. But these things take time and I need to be able to work out of my bakery and not be forced to close before my big break in business!

I even built a studio inside my bakery hoping that through my Mommy’s Anonymous Podcast, God will use me to be a voice for moms everywhere who are struggling with navigating motherhood while dealing with real life challenges including (but not limited to) mental health issues like ADHD, depression and anxiety- like me.

Everything I have worked for has lead to this moment of truth. I hate that finances and things out of my control such as the pandemic are what stand between me accomplishing my goals.

While I know that my livelihood is no one else’s responsibility, I also know that God places people in our paths for a reason.

No amount is too small- or too big.
