Get this, fu***rs:
Everyone should have the opportunity to realize their dreams, the way I did when I opened Benna's Cafe on October 30, 2004. So for my darling cafe's 16th anniversary, I would like to open my wallet for Black Girl Ventures. "Black Girl Ventures (BGV) is a social enterprise dedicated to finding creative solutions to dissolve the race and gender gap in access to capital." Learn more at https://www.blackgirlventures.org/
From October 30-November 3rd, Benna's Cafe will donate 16% of sales to Black Girl Ventures in honor of our 16 year anniversary. Or feel free to visit their website and donate directly. Everyone should have the opportunity to do what they love as much as I LOVE LOVE LOVE BENNA'S CAFE.
I'm not crying; you are.
