This isn't goodbye
They say all good things must come to an end, but you know there’s more to our story.
Over the last 8 months we’ve had the distinguished honor of being named the #1 female-founded, female-led startup for amount of funds raised on this platform.
Our campaign has been joined by 3,339 individuals who believe in our mission to de-stigmatize pleasure and elevate the topic of sexual wellness — that’s all of you. Collectively, you have raised $1,723,766. These are funds we planned to use to continue scaling our business and developing technological innovations to help people explore their sexuality with positivity and confidence.
We know you believe in the work we are doing, in our Founder & CEO, Lora Haddock DiCarlo, and our entire team of talented and dedicated individuals. You’ve demonstrated that with your outpouring of support, messages of encouragement, and with your dollars. We are humbled and grateful.
It is with a heavy heart that we share this news with you today: the compliance team at Republic has decided to withdraw our campaign. This means that your investment will be refunded, and no SAFEs will be issued. For any questions regarding transactions, refunds, or other issues pertaining to your investment status, please email Republic at investors@republic.co
We know this may be confusing and upsetting to you; it has been for us as well. However, we ultimately see this as an opportunity to continue doing what we do best — disrupting the status quo and finding innovative paths forward.
We have some exciting news planned for the next couple of months, and more in 2022. We hope you will keep in touch with us as our story unfolds. You can sign up for our newsletter here and find us on social media @loradicarlo_hq.
From our Founder & CEO, Lora: Lora DiCarlo Inc. has recently had some positive and productive organizational and ownership changes that we are very excited about.
