As I am forced to finish my business plan for class in the late hours of the night and likely continuing into the wee hours of the morning, I flipped on the t.v. to CNN and found the series Black in America. Watch this program. That's it. For a glimpse of what I want to do with a non-profit, here is part of the business plan:
1.01 Purpose. The purpose of Community Building Services is to research policy options to study the causes, the effects, and solutions to eradicate poverty through empowering communities and community-based organizations. CBS will use this research and work with existing community organizations and community members to build communities that reflect the values, culture, and successes of the members.
1.02 Goals. CBS will use a multi-disciplinary approach to include small business formation and business contracts, basic health care analysis and policy advocacy, and arts educations and advocacy. CBS will write policy briefs and articles educating governments, non-governmental organizations, and individuals regarding poverty. CBS will provide resource support to existing non-governmental organizations focused on eradicating poverty. CBS will host educational seminars and one-on-one meetings for community members interested in community building, whether it be through advocacy, forming a small business, increase attention to basic health needs, or expanding arts programs. CBS will increase support over time to cover additional fields including education, government, law and cultural advancement.
