Support YellowFinn & Staff Through Construction Challenges
Donation protected
We just passed our first year as the new owners of YellowFinn late in October. My wife Joy and I have loved YellowFinn, the staff, the customers, the location, and the food. We invested in updating the ambiance, decor, bathrooms, equipment, lighting, and infrastructure. We didn't realize that the "short-lived" project on 21st South last October would bloom into the large reconstruction project slated to last until the end of 2025! The customers we expected to frequent our doors were much shorter in supply than historical records told us to expect. The construction has simply kept much of the normal foot traffic away.
Why a Go Fund Me page? Being in business for 14 years means nothing if the loans, rent, taxes, various vendors, and other bills can't be paid. We also have may long-time staff members that depend on YellowFinn for their livelihoods. We need help! Obviously, eating at YellowFinn or ordering online is our bread and butter, but we could really use extra help to make ends meet and push back the impact of the construction. Sugarhouse has some special and unique businesses that just can't rely on alternate income streams from other locations. We are only one YellowFinn! Help us be here still to enjoy with you the newly renovated 2100 S street in a few years. 12 small businesses in Sugarhouse have already closed their doors due to the construction! We don't want to be the next one.
November is critical for YellowFinn! We need your help to meet our small business loan payment, address back taxes, and catch up on lease payments. Your help and support is so appreciated. Thank you!
