Calavino's needs contributions to survive

Carl Black (Decatur Hometown Hero) links to this MySpace page, which is asking for our help.

The e-mail from Donati Calavino says:

"Unless we raise enough money to save it we will be closing as of Dec 21st."

Another approach is to go there and support their business. Here's what up:

Soul Food Sundays,soul food(5-10) and free music(7-9 Sunday evenings hosted by Doria Roberts Sunday jazz

Brunch with Julie Dexter Sunday the 7th

Here's a video at CitySearch, which features' this blogger's friends, Kat & Kelly.

Give money, or go there, as you elect. Either will help.

Have donated money to them and never received a CD, Thank You or anything. It's hard to let your dreams go, but aking for that much money is quite forward. I suggest you save and try and rebuild, life isn't full of hand outs. Working hard, busniness smart and know how to achieve what you want.

Actually Christy,
We offered to,and were more than happy to, drop the cd off on Christmas Eve and “your partner told us to drop it in the mail. Unfortunately the post office was closed and as I had informed “your partner” we were leaving early morning the day after Christmas. We left instructions for the dog sitter to mail the package which she assured us she did. And not only did we send the signed cd as promised we even sent an extra unopened cd for the delay. When I had not heard anything from “your partner” I inquired as to weather or not it had been received, it had not so we immediately sent your money back. “Your partner has since informed me that the cd’s showed up the day before the overnighted refund. So,you have,1 signed cd,1 sealed cd and your $50 donation. Everyone who donated has been informed of the next step and what we are doing with the donations in-lieu of saving Calavino’s. They are all being compensated not only what they donated but we are also planning a patron party in their honor as a thank-you for the support so, where in lies the scam?
