Back to business!

1/3/13                                                                                                                        

It’s a new year and it’s back to business!

Today, I met with George Muhammad of the Kwanzaa Cultural Access Center, Inc. The meeting went very well. It was one of the important meetings in that it provided me with names and contacts of the black business community in Macon. People I will need as supporters in any and every way. It was a very helpful meeting. The next step is to begin contacting these people to share with them my non-profit (once she has a name) and ideas about how we can partner or come together for a common good. I also learned that if I want to do things the way they should be done, I have to start a nonprofit to back the program. If I just placed the program within an already existing entity, some program components could be lost and it would be under the direction of someone other than me. So, its best to go all the way with it. As I suspected. But now it means I must go ahead and commit to all of the steps needed to developing a non-profit, including a business plan. A business plan? Yes honey!
