From the GoFundMe page: "While the Dashnaws work through the shock of the unexpected, heartbreaking loss of their business, plans are starting on how to rebuild the pizzeria. As a small, family-owned business, that will take time. While they work to get back to serving the community delicious pizza & meals, many have asked how they can assist the Dashnaws. Let’s give them a helping hand to help put food on the table, heat their home, pay their mortgage, and alleviate some str...ess until they are able to reopen their business. The Dashnaws are always willing to help anyone in the community; now is the time to help them. Any donation, kind words, and support is greatly appreciated."
