YDNT Launch Fundraiser
Hey, friends!
I'm thrilled to introduce you to YDNT (You Deserve Nice Things). It's more than just a name — it's the heart of my furniture and homewares business. At YDNT, I believe that everyone deserves to have a home filled with beautiful, unique, and luxurious things, and that you shouldn't have to earn a fortune to do so.
When I lost my tech job during industry-wide layoffs in 2025, my dream of launching a small business at some distant point in the future suddenly had to become a reality, fast. Since then, and thanks to orders from many of you already YDNT has absolutely exploded!

Why I Need Your Help
Thanks to the truly unbelievable level of interest I’ve received in my products, I've completely outgrown my backyard! Orders are flying in and I'm juggling more custom pieces than I ever imagined. The demand is there but my production capacity is limited. It’s time for a real workshop!
I need to raise $25,000. Your support will help me cover the initial costs of:
-
A dedicated workshop space so I can keep up with demand and keep the sawdust out of my home.
-
Essential tools and safety gear to scale up production and work more efficiently and safely.
-
A truck to transport materials and offer free delivery to customers in and around Brooklyn.
-
Up-front costs for materials for the growing number of large projects.
By donating you are laying the foundation for a small, local business built on the idea that beauty and quality should be accessible to everyone. You're helping build a dream, one contribution at a time.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support, for believing in this mission, and for helping bring YDNT to life.
Ben
