✨️We need a miracle✨️

This weekend 🙈

👋🏼 Hi!
I'm Veronica. I'm the owner of a small business  here in Melbourne called Happily Made and I want to help another small business called Dragonfly Cafe raise 12,000
by Monday....June 1!!!! 🙈🙉🙊
(It's bananas)

Here's the story: (and I'll need to use a bit of code so the Al Gore Rhythm doesn't punish me for asking help with the forbidden topic of m0ney)

Two days ago, I shared a post asking for suggestions for a cafe in Melbourne where we can meet to grow our humanitarian community 🌱

✨️Yesterday (less than 24hrs later) I stepped into THE PERFECT PLACE✨️

I was literally gobsmacked.

Of course, the Universe being the Universe, wasn't going to be completely straightforward. And it turns out that I've walked into a cafe at the 11th hour of it needing a financial miracle 🙃

I initially understood this to mean that they wanted help with the m0ney needed to set up a kitchen. So I rushed home in a very short free window and threw together some Happily Made treasures to make up a R♡FFLE. I also grabbed a whole bunch of magnetic monkeys that looooove hanging out at cafes.
I figured that I could contribute with a month long r♡ffle and giving 10 d0llars from every monkey. Easy!!

(Even in the short time of sitting at a table attaching tags, I managed to find forever homes for two monkeys 🏡🏘)

It was only last night when I scrolled through Dragonfly's insta account that I realised that it's a MUCH more urgent situation 🙈🙉🙊

We don't have a month...we have a WEEKEND 😅

Here's the crazy thing. We can TOTALLY do this.
And it will actually be super easy.

There are even options!

For those of you that live close to Preston:

1. You can pop over in person and grab something delicious from Dragonfly's deli (there are some fantastic treats for humans & dogs 🐾)

2. While there you can also grab a R♡FFLE ticket.

For those who live further away:

1. Even the tiniest contribution will make a HUGE difference if enough of us step in.

2. If you prefer it to be more of an exchange...you are in for a treat!!! I have soooooo many Happily Made treasures that you can choose from. And 10 d0llars from EVERY treasure will be passed on to Dragonfly Cafe.

In particular the magnetic monkeys and the handwoven fairylights I have LOTS of. (Everything else I might be in low supply)

I don't often share about my business, so for some of you this will be the first time you realise why my page is called Happily Made. So yes, everything I sell is handmade & ethical and creates home-based jobs for marginalised women (mostly) in Cambodia 🌴

It feels very right supporting another small business like this...
