The economy has affected everyone. Many small businesses like mine have struggled to keep the doors open and the lights on. Established in 2017, I just wanted to create a safe space for creative kids to find their tribe and express themselves in a creative environment. Our school has years of 5-star reviews on Google and Facebook. Our Art School has Consecutive wins for Best of Gwinnett since 2020 and Best in Georgia since 2022. But we are barely holding on. In an attempt to help our families we only implemented a $10 increase to our monthly tuition rates. But in this economy, it’s just not enough. I have literally exhausted all efforts for funding. I worked extremely hard to fund everything out of my own pocket with no loans or grant money. I did not receive a PPP loan during the pandemic because I didn’t understand it and I was afraid of getting in legal trouble. Applying for loans and grants and receiving denial after denial. I am tempted to close the doors for good. I am asking for some cushion to help get bills caught up, pay rent (which has increased by $1300/year) I am disappointed and discouraged. Thank you for taking time to read this. And thank you for any assistance in any amount.
