24/7 Card Shop and 3D Print Farm Fund
I am in the process of finding a large building to transform into a 24/7 retail location and 3D printing farm. My goal is to teach the local community how to use 3D printers and provide access to them to use the 3D printers if they can't afford to buy one. I also aim to help people with innovative ideas to help bring them to life by collaborating with local designers and engineers to help inventors actually prototype ideas.
Additionally, I plan to run a 24/7 card shop featuring games like Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering, providing a safe space for people to play and make new friends at any time of day or night. The retail section will offer cards directly from distributors, allowing members to purchase cards at regular prices instead of the inflated prices often seen after new releases.
I am considering locations in Brandon, Pearl, and Flowood for this project. I am seeking assistance in securing enough funding to cover the initial startup costs. A section will be added to the site to show all the money raised and detail the exact purchases each dollar goes towards. None of the donated money will be used for personal expenses or salaries. All funds will be allocated to the building, equipment, and inventory.
