Hilda showed Mercy how they could make the purchase happen.
Mercy started leasing a building - a nice building - which doubled the size of the business. But then, the landlord decided to sell the building. He wanted $3.2 million. At first she thought, I'm a single mother. I can't afford it. But she swallowed hard and made an offer. But that was only the beginning. Three different banks rejected her applications. Mercy couldn't seem to qualify.
Then, Hilda Kennedy of AmPac TriState CDC came into the picture. Hilda showed Mercy how they could make the purchase happen. Now, Mercy and her family run Casa Morena, a senior living residence upstairs, and a yogurt shop called "Oh Sweet Mercy" and they opened a second restaurant in nearby Claremont.
The restaurants support 60 jobs. The best part, Mercy says, is helping her team members grow. "They are all my children," she says.
