💗 Please help us support one of our own.
Last year, when Mario & Gino’s was still finding our footing, we had the privilege of meeting Lena when she joined our commissary to chase a dream of her own — starting her hot dog trailer, “Weenie Genie.” 🌭
Anyone who has started a small food business knows just how much heart, hard work, and courage it takes to turn that dream into reality. Unfortunately, Lena has had to put that dream on hold after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Following a double mastectomy, she is now back in the hospital battling a serious infection while undergoing around-the-clock IV antibiotics.
As fellow small business owners, this one hits especially close to home. We’re asking our Mario & Gino’s family to rally around Lena and her family during an incredibly difficult time. 💕
If you’re able, please consider donating to her GoFundMe. Even a small donation can make a difference. If donating isn’t possible, sharing this post and keeping Lena and her family in your thoughts and prayers means just as much.
Lena, we’re rooting for you!! 💗🌭
