Aloha,


A serious proposal here:

Once PIW is online as you proposed and open for business wouldn't it then be
reasonable
to send out solicitations for direct funding or assistance in acquiring
funding.
I can think of 2 or 3 non profits in my area we could send requests for
assistance
in finding and getting development money we need. They could get the grant
themselves
and disbures funds directly to thos on the payroll or send payments
(incremental or
the full amount of the grant) to PCI/Scott for disbursement. Maybe there
would not be
a problem having grant money pass through two hands before it gets paid out
in wages.


Would depend on the grantors...they have to be OK with use of funds or they're not going to grant them.

In any case it's fine by me to pursue this and see if it works.

cheers,
John S.

I'd like to hear what Scott and Chad have to say about any/all of us heading
out on our own
to seek any possible sources of funding. I don't have a lot of time to put
into this
(and not on anyone's payroll) but I have a few ideas about local
organizations that are usually very heavily involved in
grant writing for projects they are involved in or to seek money to disburse
to other group's prjects.
Its a long shot but worth looking into.

Maybe John S. would fly us all out Hiwahee to donate our time working off his wages helping build another ferrocement structure at his encampment, with looooong lunchbreak luaus on the beach frolicing in the sun, drinking pineapple nectar, eating grilled seafood and organic cornpones. Sound OK?
