Tip Jar 317: Samano's Taqueria

Donation protected
I want to invite everyone to join me in supporting the employees of Samano's Taqueria. The impact of COVID-19 on these lives has been great. 

WHAT IS TIP JAR 317?
Tip Jar 317 is a digital tip jar... it started with my dad's company, Miller Diversified in Northwest Ohio. As part of the company's 100 year celebration, Miller Diversified decided back in January to perform 100 acts of kindness. In this current crisis, the Miller team launched an initiative they called Tip Jar 419 (Toledo's area code), with the hope that people in other area codes would want to use the same idea in their own area.

This particular digital tip jar is for the staff of Samano's Taqueria, a favorite spot of mine here in Fishers. 

WHO RECEIVES FUNDS FROM THE TIP JAR?
Every penny raised will be given to the employees of this restaurant, who are not able to receive their usual tips at this time. These individuals and their families are in a time of great need, and we have the power to make a difference. I've set a fundraising goal (which I hope to reach or exceed!), but will be distributing funds to Samano's as soon as possible regardless of whether or not we hit our goal. 

WHY SAMANO'S TAQUERIA?
If you've ever been to Samano's you've probably spoken to Adrian, an extraordinary person who dedicates so much of his time and energy to making his restaurant something truly special. The food is amazing, but so is the overwhelming warmth you feel as soon as you walk in the door. These people work so hard to give us such delicious meals and a warm and friendly place to gather with our loved ones... I would love to return the favor in some small way by giving them some additional support during this time.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?
You can help in two ways:
1.) Leave a tip in the tip jar! No amount is too small... every cent is meaningful!
2.) Share this GoFundMe page on your social channels to help us reach our goal.
3.) Please consider leaving an encouraging note to the Samano's staff in the comments. They deserve our encouragement at this time!

I will be updating this page with our progress, and we will let you know when the funds have been released to the restaurant employees.
