Cafe donation

Lalore Café, a quaint, bright café located at 113 Harmony Crossing in Eatonton, struggles to remain open amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Husband and wife owners Manuel Sanchez and Lorena Bruzzone came to the United States in 2016, worked hard, and poured the life savings into opening their dream eatery. Lalore Café opened in June 2018, serving a variety of specialty food and drink. They are well known for their excellent desserts and coffees. Unfortunately, like many small businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on the couple and their business, and they are struggling to make ends meet.  In the spirit of community, Hargray and other individuals and businesses have contributed to help Manny and Lorena keep their dream alive and save Lalore Café. Hargray Area Manager, Kevin Hartrich, commented, ‘Offering support to Lake Country Small Businesses like Lalore Café is one of the ways Hargray fulfills its purpose of empowering people and communities to connect and thrive. The community prospers when we all work together.’ To donate to Lalore Café visit their Facebook page to access their GoFundMe.
