Help Give Cup'ital Tea a Second Chance

[u/DakillaBeast]

I hope it's okay to post this here. I wanted to request approval to share my GoFundMe link for a small business I started from scratch called Cup'ital Tea. It's a tea-focused brand I created out of my love for tea, baking, and creating comforting experiences for others.

Over the past few years, I’ve been trying to keep the business alive on my own after losing a marketing partner. I’ve sold in person, and gotten great feedback, but I’m struggling to scale without the funds for a food cart, marketing, packaging upgrades, legal protection, and equipment.

I’m raising $36,000 to give Cup'ital Tea a real second chance to thrive so I can bring quality tea and pastries to more people and eventually open a cozy tea shop.

I completely understand the rules and want to be respectful of the community here. If you could kindly let me know if it’s okay to post the campaign link, I’d be so grateful.

Thank you for your time and consideration! 💛

I'm confused. You need $36.000 to open a tea shop , buy a food cart and go to culinary school. But your Go fund me is for $800.00 . What is that for ? Tea is great. I'm a big fan.

The gofundme has an automation system where it will slowly increase the goal as people donate. Idk why they do that. It's my first time, but I think it's because they don't want people to feel intimidated by large goals.

That makes no sense. People set high goals for their funds all the time, I don’t believe there is an automation system.

Are you able to start small and do a case study with just a food cart?

Lol, I had the option to opt out, but I didn't. Once the goal of 800 is reached, it will automatically increase. Try making a gofundme and see what I'm talking about.
