As a small business owner, I cannot even begin to fathom watching what I've worked so hard to build be destroyed right in front of my eyes.
Five local businesses in Metter, Georgia have been destroyed by a fire tonight. These are my friends, my co-workers, my people. A new mom, a soon-to-be mom, two of the most wonderful families in this town and a group of the nicest, most hard-working women I know. My heart just HURTS for them.
I sat across these buildings watching them burn and felt completely helpless, much like many of my peers tonight.
I don't know how to help and I really don't know what to say, but what I do know is how to design t-shirts. This design is not only meant to represent the businesses affected, but meant to serve as a reminder to ALL of these business owners that they have an entire community behind them. A community that will help them pick up the pieces and rebuild with them.
It's also meant to serve as a reminder that we have the ultimate champion for our lives and our businesses. In the wise, wise words of Mrs. Aly Torres, God is good and God has a plan.
100% of proceeds from the Rebuild Tee will be donated to the following businesses:

My heart is with you all. Metter is with you all. 🤍
