Local Restaurant Helps Single Mom That Lost Everything for Mother's Day
King Jerk Restaurant and Food Truck partners with single mom that almost lost her business and was homeless to help her get back on her feet.
MIAMI, FLORIDA, USA, May 11, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Shenique King, single mom and inventor of the Patented International Gold Merit Awarded FeebMEE Baby Bottle Mixer and Heater1 had to dissolve her business, King Royal, LLC at the end of 2016 when she was scammed by an International investment deal of all her savings. During this time, the inventor became a single mom after she had left her corporate job to pursue her entrepreneurship. After interviewing with numerous companies to get back into the job market, she was either to over or under qualified for the positions which almost left her homeless.Ms. King fell into a depression and was forced to have her daughter live with her mother, in Louisiana separating her from her daughter, while she continued to pursue a job in her field within the Miami market. The inventor's bills got out of control, and she was forced to file a Chapter 13 to save her business and not lose her car. After being behind three months on her rent, she was served several eviction notices. King sold most of her furniture on Craig's list to raise some money for her bills. King states, "I had to do what I had to do so I could make a way for my daughter to come back home. It was very tough, thank God the Salvation Army, the City of Hallandale Beach and dear friends assisted me with my rent and bills or I would of not been able to catch up on my own. I had already packed up all of my belongings and moved most of it to live back with my mother in Louisiana, so I could be with my daughter."
Not giving up, Ms. King finally received a part-time job offer and worked long hours driving Uber and Lyft while working other freelance jobs. She finally caught up on her bills but is still struggling to get her company back up and running to meet her already planned goals for her Patented International awarded product. King states, "I spent all of my savings, 401k and the salary that I was making towards investing in my company and the product. I was so happy when I finally got my patent approved. Having to dissolve my business at the end of 2016 was very hard for me. I am thankful I was able to re-register my business, however I am starting all over again. This product means everything to me, because it was inspired by my daughter. Being a single mom in college while working two internships, a full-time job while completing my degree was tough! If I had the FeebMEE Baby Bottle Mixer and Heater my life would of been much easier. I am building this company for my daughter's future and to be a blessing to other parents who may need help, as I did, while pursuing their dreams someday."
Oratio Garell, owner of King Jerk Restaurant2 and Food Truck, located in North Miami, FL was touch by the single mom's story and has decided to contribute $1 for selected plate purchases starting Mother's Day until the end of June 2017 as a contribution towards her #StartingOver4 campaign listed on Go Fund Me3. King states, "I need all the help I can get for my next funding round. I have worked so hard to finally hire a great engineering team to produce the first inventory of the FeebMEE. This is the forth time I am starting over. The first three campaigns did not go very well. I pray this one does."
