Personal Story
Who are we? We are a couple in love with each other and our community. Our life’s work rests with sharing our love for wellness. I am a Milwaukee native with deep community roots! The entrepreneurial spirit began with my father who has supported the growth and development of Milwaukee youth for the last 40 years. His work is our legacy. Both of our families have deep roots and are invested in community development. Together we proudly carry the torch. Over the years we have advanced many community building sessions around food and exercise. Our desire to see wellness bloom in our very on family gave life to our new endeavor the Juice Kitchen.
The desire for the continued health of our family and the community has inspired us to move forward with the development of The Juice Kitchen. Our community has asked us to support their journey in health and The Juice Kitchen is our faithful response. Through the provision of a variety of juices and smoothies, we will draw residents from surrounding areas and our local community members into our holistic hub of health and wellness cuisine.
My wife JoAnne and I both work for a small non-profit called Walnut Way Conservation Corp who’s mission it is to sustain economically diverse and abundant communities through civic engagement, environmental stewardship, and creating venues for prosperity. With our two children we have chosen to live this mission daily. Our son Taj came up with the name Juice Kitchen and our daughter Ameera sealed the deal with “we love juice”!
We are creating the Juice Kitchen to bridge the divide between our community and healthy food. Our community has asked us to support their journey in health and the Juice Kitchen is our faithful response.
Business Description
The Juice Kitchen is a movement! A space and a recipe made with love for our community. Our vision is community ownership and wellness through living foods.
When you purchase products from The Juice Kitchen you are boldly investing in our neighbors, our youth, and are impacting your own personal wellness. We combine fresh fruit and vegetables to create life affirming juice mixtures. We came together as a family and began to juice in an effort to support our son Taj’s illness. His famous words branded us! “This is a business so let’s call it The Juice Kitchen.” So here we stand still juicing, thriving, and at the service of our greater family and the community in which we live. Join us!! It’s not just Juice!
What is the purpose of this loan?
The loan will be spent on a 2,500 Nutrifaster commercial juicer ($4,296.29) and 2 Vitamix blenders ($703.71). This loan will ensure that we have the proper machines to juice high quality nutritional products. More juicer and blenders are required to ensure that staffs hired have the equipment to juice. An additional juicer for us means more satisfied customers!
Most importantly, additional equipment will also help us to produce and sell more juices. We have a large demand and need additional equipment to meet it! This loan will prove to our children that their vision has impact. It will support a sense of purpose and connection to our community for our entire family.
