 > Hi folks,
 > 
 > We know you are hungry for news about KitTea. We're currently in the process 
 > of signing a lease at a spot in Hayes Valley.
 > 
 > Unfortunately, due to the amount of money the landlord would like as a 
 > guarantee, combined with additional build-out we'd need to do to pass code 
 > from the health department, we estimate that we need an additional $100,000 
 > before we can sign the lease and begin construction.
 > 
 > We just don't have that kind of money up-front, even with the overly 
 > generous contributions of the KitTea community.
 > 
 > We're looking for partners who are serious about investing, for a percentage 
 > ownership in KitTea. Please contact Courtney at http://www.kitteasf.com/~courtney (
 > http://www.kitteasf.com/~courtney)  if you or anyone you know is interested.
 > 
 > We're also leaving our crowdfunding campaign open to help raise these funds. 
 > You can get private access to the cafe before we open to the public by 
 > donating $100, along with other rewards.
