My husband and I are the inventors of a new product that combines protection and beauty for high heels. We have been married for over 29 years and have been working side by side to beat life’s odds. We have two beautiful teenage sons who are supporting our project and, in the process, they are learning that dreams can come true with persistent work and determination. Since we got married, my husband supported my decision to obtain an education and sacrificed his own goals having to work multiple jobs as a security guard to support the family. His unconditional support allowed me to be the first person in my family to graduate from high school and earn a Doctorate Degree in Post-Secondary and Adult Education. We are very happy to now have our two sons in college but having those expenses also limits the money we can use to manufacture our product. We are passionate about making the impossible possible. With this loan, we will be able to manufacture our product, transform our dreams into a business, and create new jobs, all while we provide women who wear high heels with a product to extend the life of their shoes and enhance the look of their heels. We have the willpower to succeed with our invention but need help with the last mile. Obtaining this loan would be vital for us.
