We are launching a crowdfunding campaign on December 17th, 2017 to raise $75,000 to upgrade the commercial kitchen in the basement!

The first campaign will be for $15,000 toward Phase 1: Groundwork.

Check out the campaign video here: https://omnicommons.org/omnikitchen.mp4

Here's a draft of the campaign text: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MJf6NxPiCOFp-5vNGKW39Z5U5AyVcuOgzEoDxJP8VqU/edit?usp=sharing
