Biography

I am 58 years old,
Married
4 sons 2 step daughters
15 grand children (We are raising our 3rd grand child
One son lives with us along with his son due to economic hardships.

My Purpose

Save my failing business. I own a small business called CBS Logistics. We have 3 employess and several carriers who drive for us. Right now my company is suffering from the ecomoic collapse just like many other small business. I have exhausted all resources trying to come with enough capital to keep us going. I have talked to my bank for a personal loan I have maxed out all credit cards, I have applied for a grant and for an SBA Loan. All to no avail. I even checked into filing a chapter 11 bankruptcy (cost minumum $25,000), which I dont have the money for and I would rather pay the drivers and my employees. I don't want to file bankruptcy because it will cause a trickle down effect which will put my drivers and office employees out of work. Please help us.

Temp Loss of Income

Description: I need to raise enough money to put my company back on its feet. The economic crisis has hit my company hard and because I am a small business there is no help for me. I have tried applying for grants ( problem is I'm a for profit company) and sba loans and maxed out all of my credit cards. I have even tried to refinance my home but becuase I have exhausted what credit I have my debt to ratio is now to high. I have 3 people who work in the office plus all my drivers. If I go out of business the trickle down effect will cause my office employees to be unemployed and will put many of my drivers out of business also. Please I need help so that I can pay everyone and restore this company so that i do not have to put anyone out of a job.

I pray this works out for you. I had a pc repair business I had to close last year after my husband passed away. I didn't have employees, but, none the less. God bless!
