Support me in becoming the owner of a Boba Shop!

Donation protected
Deep breath. After a lot of trepidation, but with so much support and encouragement from my trusted family and friends, I’m doing it, I’m going for it! A local boba shop here in Germany is for sale and I’m about to become the new owner!

I’ve had a handful of serendipitous occurrences in my life and this has definitely shown up like fate. Have you ever felt like other things in life weren't quite going to plan but then the timing of a momentous opportunity just lands right in front of you? The second I saw the shop for sale listing I was already drawn to it like a magnet, imagining all the possibilities and the place to call my own.

I’ve always been a big-time dreamer but never knew which projects to pursue. After dreaming up notebooks and notebooks of ideas, designs, businesses, and more… I usually talked myself out of taking any steps to make them a reality. (But who remembers when I was running a “cute stuff” online shop from my dorm room at Rutgers?!) Life passed by and those dreams got shelved to gather dust. But this is my chance to finally live out my dream of being a store owner. With more wisdom and experience under my belt, the time is right to really make a notable place for myself in Germany. I love being a mom to my two boys but I know my ambition was meant for so much more.

I’m excited to breathe new life into this already wonderful local hangout favorite. The location is perfect and has so much potential as it borders a newly finished town square/plaza that will hold local and seasonal events. I’m sure other parents of young children know exactly what I’m talking about when I say I’m always looking for fun activities and nearby snacks and treats for a nice family outing and this ticks all those boxes. A cute shop to share my love for ‘the adorable’ and bubble tea with the community.

As I embark on this journey, I would be honored to have your support in turning this dream into a reality. As with any ambitious endeavor, financial support is crucial to ensure a smooth transition and secure the future of this beloved shop. I’m investing a good amount of personal capital but could really use the extra support to fully carry out my vision for the store.

Your generous donation will directly contribute to the acquisition process, covering expenses such as the purchase price and necessary renovations to enhance the overall experience for our valued customers.

$5, $10, literally no amount is too small and every dollar makes a difference and brings me closer to my dream! I genuinely appreciate any contribution you can offer, and am committed to acknowledging your support in a meaningful way. Whether it's through a heartfelt thank you message, special promotions or gifts, or even featuring your name on a dedicated space of appreciation within the shop, I want you to know that your contribution will be recognized, utilized, and celebrated to the fullest.

Thank you for your consideration in supporting my venture here in Germany. Even if you do not or are unable to contribute financially, please know that your encouragement, support, shares, likes, and future visits are already acknowledged and so deeply felt.

With deepest gratitude,
Steph
