It is with a heavy heart that we announce that we closed our doors to Sweet Generation | RISE. We have tried our very best to weather the storm of the past two years and provide our customers and guests with delicious food and a welcoming destination to gather. But in the end, the long-lasting effects of Covid that plague our operation and industry (including rising costs and decimation of our wholesale and catering business) have made it impossible to continue.
We are working with our network, partners and staff to find new career opportunities for our incredibly hard-working and dedicated team of interns, apprentices, youth employees and staff.
We are heartbroken, but not broken. We’ve accomplished so much, and we feel honored and proud to have worked with and trained over 150 young people during our 10 years of service and are grateful for all your support in making that possible. We look forward to exploring other paths to continue our mission.
THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!
With love and gratitude,
Amy Chasan and the Sweet Generation | RISE team
