9 Julio Empanada Kitchen

We did it! Our $10,000 Kiva loan is fully funded in less than 2 weeks. Thanks for your support. Here's a preview of the restaurant design that your contribution will fund.

We're more than halfway home! Just under a week left and we've raised over 50% of our $10,000 goal and just need 2 more investors to hit our target. Google is matching funds 1-to-1 today. Contribute now at https://www.kiva.org/lend/1604540 to help us transform this space.

Many of you have asked how you can support the restaurant opening without the commitment of being a shareholder. We've launched a Kiva crowdfunding campaign with you in mind. We’re raising $10,000 in the form of a 0% interest loan. We have 9 days to secure our 1st 20 investors. Invest as little as $25 or as much as $10,000. We appreciate any and all support. Invest today while the funds are being matched by Google and the City of Oakland to double your impact. https://mailchi.mp/868fb8b0e/join-our-crowdfunding-campaign

#TBT to our 2nd favorite date, March 15th. On that date 4 years ago, we sold our 1st empanada at the Castro Valley Farmer's Market (Thanks Nico!). Same date 4 years later we signed the lease on our 1st restaurant space in Oakland. From a tent to Temescal, let's do this!
