unpaid wages

$1,617 of $15,000 goal
Given by 39 generous donors in around 6 months

looking for donations to pay staff wages that were not able to be paid due to a business going into liquidation.

Canterbury

Hi we are looking for support to pay our 15 staff that were made redundant when our mad butcher franchise was terminated, we do not have the funds to pay the staff who were a really great team and did not deserve to lose their jobs like this, unfortunately any funds from the business will be taken by the bank to repay debt.

some people have said that they feel that i am abusing the givealittle page by asking for donations but at least i am trying to do something positive for the staff and it is voluntary so you do not have to donate!

Others have asked or have said how did you get into so much debt, well the bulk of the debt is owed to the bank through finance as we borrowed to buy the business and had only been there 2.5 years and had not paid alot off, the bank have frozen our accounts and have security over our house to repay the debt, as with the business being terminated we do not have anything to sell only the plant which the bank also have security over so we have lost our initial investment hence the shortfall in funds.

I was one of the owners and have taken it personally that i can not and do not have the funds to pay these people that have become my friends during their time working in the business.So thought i would see if some how i could raise some funds to pay them.

Use of funds

funds donated will be used to pay the 15 staff that were made redundant as they are just normal working folks and can not afford to take this lose.
