'Won't give up!' Prayers, support pour in for Ferguson woman whose cake shop was vandalized; Update: Fundraising goal surpassed — by tens of thousands

Natalie DuBose is the hardworking owner of Natalie’s Cakes and More in Ferguson, Missouri. And last night, her business was among those vandalized by so-called “peaceful” protesters.

No justice we’ve ever heard of.

But out of the muck can come something wonderful, and that’s what’s happening today. DuBose is determined to move forward:

“I’m baking today,” Dubose told CNNMoney, as the sound of broken glass being swept up can be heard over the phone. “We have orders to go out for Thanksgiving. I can’t tell the people — I won’t tell the people — that I’m canceling.”

Despite the mess, however, Dubose says she will continue to bake. She can’t afford to give up now, having invested all she had into a business that was funded through bake sales at flea markets.

“I am a single mom, a mother of two,” she said. “This is everything that I own. I can’t walk away from it. I just got to start up and start baking again.”

Such an amazing spirit.

And she’s receiving an outpouring of support and encouragement from across the country:

Amen to that!
