Let's Keep Moving Forward

(This is a re-post of the most recent update on our recently funded Kickstarter campaign.)

Together, you have helped us reach our Kickstarter funding goal in 4 days. That is incredible. We are extremely grateful to everyone who has reached out, spread the word, donated, and continues to believe in us, in Curiosity Doughnuts, and in changing the world with doughnuts. You all are making it happen.

Now we have the opportunity to continue fundraising. Though the numbers exceed our original goal, they still have a purpose. The additional funding allows us to integrate aesthetic details and acquire equipment that are considered part of Phase Two of Curiosity Doughnuts. And, some of the funds beyond the goal will be destined for the “Oh S**t fund” for the unexpected and unplanned for costs of opening a new shop. We work hard to be prepared and know to expect curveballs, because there are always new and interesting challenges when dealing with buildings and businesses. Like discovering that your building is built on a concrete slab and the only way to realistically (due to budget and time constraints) add new drains is to get a pump to pipe the wastewater up the walls and through the ceiling to the existing drains.

Now we have 16 days to exceed our goal and make magic happen. Let’s see what’s possible and keep moving forward.

Thank you for all your support, interest, help, and passion for doughnuts.
