I am finally finished with the 501(c)(3) paperwork.
now, any donation my kitchen gets, is tax deductible as long as it is over 250 bucks. There is some technicality about donations of 100$, but I have not looked completely into that one yet.
I am going to begin contacting major food distributor corporations, asking for donations. Then, once we have the food, clothing and hygiene items we need, we are going to hand out fliers in inner city and government housing units, making the people aware of the food distribution, Sloppy 2nds, coming the next day.
Anyone who needs food or clothing, or soap or anything can come to our bus, and we will be giving out 10 grand worth of food and supplies on every mission. No proof of income necessary, just their word that they need our assistance.
I cannot fucking wait to do the first one.
I was just cooking a hot meal about once a week for homeless people, now I have moved on to bigger things. We will still continue to bring hot meals to the homeless, but now we will have the ability to do more than that.
My goal is to open a "drop-in center". Homeless and traveling people can come into my center, re-up on food items, warm clothing, sleeping bags, socks, toothbrushes... etc. and be on their way. I'm hoping to have a shelter there too, and a car that people can use to take their driving test. We will help people get their birth certificates and SS cards too. This is going to be awesome. It will cost about 150,000$$$ to open up the first one. I want to open 5 of these centers with the first one opening in 3 to 5 years.
So..... our paypal account will be set up VERY soon. If you or anyone you know would like to donate to this cause, please let me know. It's tax deductible..... do it!!!
This is a grassroots collective working to end hunger and poverty across the CUNTry. Everything that has taken place so far has been done by donations that members of my association have personally collected. We work our asses off. We do not profit from any of this.
It's so damn bad ass to finally see it all coming together. I've been working on creating this entity for 2 years now. I've been through a boyfriend, a broken down skool bus in the middle of winter on a commune in the snow for 6 months, the August heat in Grand Isle Louisiana, and months upon months of carrying hundreds of pounds of food for miles on end. Finally, I see grand results.
Life is good.
