Taco Surf Fire Employee Relief

Donation protected
Hello friends, my name is Serena and I'm creating this Gofundme to help the employees of Taco Surf.
 
Taco Surf has been hit hard over the last few years.
 
Aside from the decrease in revenue during the pandemic (something many restaurants have suffered from), we've also experienced:
  • 6 robberies (across all locations)
  • 2 drunk driver accidents (Hit and run, March 2021, Drunk Driver, February 2022) 
  • 1 colossal fire (April 15th, 2022)
 
The fire, which happened early this morning, has left the restaurant in a state of total devastation.
 
This establishment has been my family's livelihood for 34 years. I've watched blood, sweat and tears go into it day after day. Over the past few years, it seems like every time I receive a call or text from my Dad, it's a new crisis he's had to tackle at a place he loves so dearly and has worked so hard to maintain.

Now with the most recent incident, our staff have been once again affected…
 
I know each of us is doing our best to get by in this life, but if you are able to help our amazing staff with some immediate relief as we sort through the next steps we would be eternally grateful. 
 
We have a long road ahead of us to get Taco Surf up and running again but I hope we can all be dancing to Party Jones and eating tacos as soon as we can.

Again, from the bottom of my heart thank you.
