The latest and greatest
Last months deliveries went great. We ended up delivering to 2 different single dads and 1 lady who depended on oxygen, making it super difficult for her to get around her house. In all we delivered to 24 families.
As for what's going on with us NOW: By the end of the afternoon the website will be updated with March's statement, I am still trying to get in touch with Carver's about hosting that fundraiser, and I've made a great connection with someone who wants to help not only deliver food, but also help us with fundraising. What a blessing!! Also, our Etsy store is up and running, so share share share!!
God is still working here, but we can't lose momentum!!
We still need your support!!

What we need
Here is the current list of things we need:
Business cards- I have the design and it's ready to go, but I don't want the cheap, flimsy store-bought print-it-yourself ones. I'd like to start looking professional.
Door hangers- I'd like to be able to reach even the people we miss on delivery day. A door hanger is a great way to let them know we stopped by and give them information about who we are.
A mail box- Right now we're using our families mailing box, but we should really have one of our own.
shopping bags- plain plastic or paper bags to hand out the food in. Makes it easier than carrying arm-loads of frozen food.
So there it is.
If you know anyone who can help out by donating services or funds, send them to our website!!!

Up and Running
Okay, now that our website is up and running, I seriously need your help to start spreading the word.
This month we are blessed to be able to order $228.00 worth of food, but I'm nervous for next month so please please please tell your friends!!
Up until now our orders have been placed through Bayfield Christian Church but from here on out we'll be ordering our food independently. This being said, if you wish to make a donation to PF by buying a box of food, you MUST PAY PROJECT FELLOWSHIP AND LET US MAKE THE ORDER. The money has to go through our account or we CANNOT accept the donation.
Also, I have a friend who is going to sit down with me and help me fill out the 1023 Tax form for tax exempt status, the nightmare that it is. We probably won't get approved (or at least get our letter of determination) until next years, so it's a long process followed by a long wait. Yuck. Prayers on this matter are much appreciated.
We are still hoping to get a fundraiser going with a local eatery downtown, and we'll keep you up to date on that info as we get it. Check in often to keep up with more info as we progress!!

making Progress
We are really hoping to be launching a website this week.
I know... I know... We've heard this all before, but really, I am anxious to get this done. I would love to have one less thing to worry about.
In other aspects, I printed out the form to file for tax-exempt status and after just 5 pages I wanted to cry. Who speaks this language and how do they expect the rest of the human populous to have any idea what they're supposed to do with it?! To say the least, it's super confusing and even more intimidating, so I am asking a friend to look over it with me, and then I may have to hire someone to do it for me because....I'm lost. I certainly don't want to make an error on something as scary are IRS forms. {can you tell what a major fear in my life is?}
So onward and upward we go. Slowly but surely.
Don't forget that until the site gets up, you can still make donations here, on the left upper sidebar. The more the merrier!!
