I contacted the owner and I’m going to fundraise to help her out. Donated will buy paint kits to benefit an organization “Chai 4 Ever” (chai4ever.org). Venmo me @bethanyshondark and I’ll send her money to donate her kits for Chai 4 Ever.
I already have $500 in donations from folks who gave me the idea. Let’s do some mitzvahs.
With another $400 sent to my PayPal this is where we’re at.
She appreciates it! (The zelle issues are the Mixed Greens and Sophie’s Bistro GoFundMe that me and @KyleKashuv did, I’m in the process of transferring that to them over the next days. Chances of getting audited this year are 💯).
Plus the $400 in PayPal this is where we’re at. Thank you everyone!
Hell yeah fam. There’s more in the PayPal too. This is like 60 pottery kits!
Good morning everyone! We’re nearing $6500 raised. That’s over 250 craft kits for kids in need and vital income for a mom of five who has senselessly had her livelihood shut down. Thank you all so much. ❤️
Keep her business in mind as you shop for your family this holiday season! She has Hanukkah offerings but also lots of offerings for families of every faith.

This is tyrannical. The government should not be allowed to effectively put businesses out of business without providing definitive proof that cases can be directly linked to them.
I feel like I’m screaming into the void. How can we all sit by while the government strips so many people out of their livelihood? How is there no expectation that they provide anything resembling proof?
We started a revolution about a fucking tax on tea. America, what the fuck are you doing?
I have raised close to $2000 to buy kits from this woman to benefit the charitable organization of her choice (Chai 4 Ever). She will bring pottery kits to kids in need. If you’re interested in donating you can Venmo me @bethanyshondark.
In addition, we are buying Hanukkah kits for our kids for Hanukkah. You can buy any shape from her to give to your kids or relatives this holiday season. Please keep small businesses in mind while you are doing your shopping. Message her on the number on the flyer.
My inbox overfloweth. We’re at about $2500 raised. That’s about 100 donated pottery kits for Chai 4 Ever!
Brett Kavanaugh is a gang rapist, the President is a tool of the Russians, tried to kill a bunch of fish in a koi pond, etc etc etc. AND also we’d never commit voter fraud how dare you accuse us of such a thing.
I’m not saying there is, but you can’t pretend four years of lie after lie after lie meant to subvert the POTUS at every.single.turn will not be result with people believing you’re capable of anything when it comes to keeping a second term away from him.
Breaking the trust of the American people shamelessly and repeatedly has consequences. And it would’ve been nice for Democrats and the media to realize that in the lead up to an election that was already going to be razor thin.
This is always my reticence with writing for a liberal publications... The number of times I have had responses run that are ad hominem attacks instead of on the merits of my arguments. It’s really inappropriate stuff.
The sad part is it’s happened so many times for so many outlets I’m not even surprised or upset anymore. “Hey Bethany! We’d like you to write this for us.” “Sure, happy to.” Google notification day later: (Same outlet has run a direct response calling you xyz.)
