Dear Friends,

We want to express our deep gratitude for the encouraging wave of support we have received thus far. We have been constantly exploring ways to find relief from this disaster, contacting various government organizations such as the Small Business Administration and FEMA. We have been informed that we are not eligible for aid due to our status as a business and location in Manhattan, rendering this GoFundMe campaign our only method of relief. We appeal to you once more for your help in whatever form you are inclined to offer, be it patronage or simply spreading the word about our fundraiser. We thank you for being a part of our community through this challenging time and look forward to the privilege of continuing to make wonderful art with you all.

Sincerely,

Jerzy and Joanna Stryjniak
