One more note on what was mentioned earlier about fundraisers/grant writers. We are incorporated in the state of New York. If we use a professional fundraiser for any purpose I believe that we are required to have our books professionally audited. I have no idea how much that costs but it can't be cheap. We are in a catch 21 for the MOGH now. We were told that it is not practical to write grants until we have a brick and mortar location. We can't get the brick and mortar location until we get enough money to get set up. Anyone care to donate a million or two to the MOGH to get us started? Long story short, we are doing the best we can with what we have available now.
