For Giving Tuesday: Buy a Brick. Build the Brood 🧱🌈
Giving Tuesday is built on the idea that communities become stronger when people choose to support the places that matter to them. This year, we are inviting you to be part of something that will shape the future of the Urban Food Brood in a permanent and meaningful way.
We are selling our rainbow wall bricks, each one hand-painted with the name of the person who purchases it. Your name. A friend’s name. A family member’s name. A name that becomes part of our story for years to come.
The Brood was created during one of the most uncertain times for small businesses. Before we could open our doors, rent began. Delays stretched on. Costs shifted. We made every payment because we believed Springfield needed this place. We believed the community would show up once the doors finally opened.
You did. You filled the rooms. You supported the makers, cooks, roasters, growers, artists, dreamers, and small businesses who have made the Brood their home. You turned a vision into a living space filled with energy and possibility.
This Giving Tuesday (and throughout the rest of the year), we are raising funds to strengthen our foundation. Clearing the debt that came from those early delays will allow us to grow with confidence. It will help us hire more hands. It will help us welcome more small businesses into this space. It will help us remain a place where creativity and community can thrive.
There are two brick levels.
Silver bricks are one hundred dollars. Colors: Purple, Pink, Blue, and Red.
Gold bricks are two hundred fifty dollars. Colors: Green, Yellow, and Orange.
Every brick matters. Every name strengthens this place.
Your brick will be hand-lettered by a local artist and added to the rainbow wall as a lasting symbol of your support. And when all the names go up on the wall, we will celebrate together with a party worthy of what this community has built.
Thank you for considering us as part of your Giving Tuesday giving. Your support helps ensure that the Urban Food Brood continues to grow, create, and serve this city we love.
Buy a brick. Build the Brood. Help us carry this dream forward.
