Hi, my son Pierre works tirelessly trying to start his own business Hood 2 Hood Pit Stop Automotive. Since he was 11 yrs old, he has been passionate about repairing , painting and remoldeling cars.
For the past several years, Pierre has worked as a automobile mechanic. In his spare time he repairs, rebuilds and paints cars in a neglected rental facility. Pierre knows that being part of a community is important and he gives back whenever he can. On one occasion, a person desperately needed his car repaired but didn't have the money to get it fixed; hearing the story Pierre repaired the car at his own expense. Pierre has always been a blessing to me regardless of our financial hardships.
Yes! The First step toward the dream...
Pierre saved, researched and purchased the building, shown below, from the county auction and with his skills, artistic flair and his heart for people; Pierre's dreams are within reach.
Pierre continues to work a 40 hour a week job, despite freezing cold, pouring rain and blistering heat, he continues to work towards his dream Hood 2 Hood Pit Stop Automotive.
Step 2.... Building Renovation $20,000
1. Bring the building up to City Code
2. $5,000 Building clean-out cost
3. $15,000 for windows, steel doors, paint, electrical, plumbing
So why should you help my son Pierre start his business Hood 2 Hood Pit Stop Automotive?
* You're helping make a dream come true.
