Just Getting Started
We are just starting to get our feet under us. The organization exists but we are still very much in the research and establishment phase of development. I have been working with the Homelessness Division at the Department of Veterans Affairs to better understand the problem and how we can work together to tackle it.
Very early efforts at some logo concept work. All done on my phone.
I completed the Nonprofit Organization establishment with the State of California and we officially became a real entity on 14 December 2021. I immediately started researching the terms associated with our filing for 501(c)3 approval. There is so much new terminology that is very legal based and I’ve had to learn quickly. We completed the ByLaws and had our first Board of Directors meeting on 6 Jan 2022.
I created a YouTube channel for us to be able to document each participant’s story about converting the ambulance and their life. There isn’t anything on it yet but I am starting to develop the script and concept for what we should have as our first video and trailer.
We also just started the setup for a Patreon and direct donation options through our website. If you want to take the call to action, just click the button at the top of every page at rescueresidence.org or just the button below to go direct to the donation form.
I think at a minimum, we should be pushing a blog and a vlog update about the organization once per month. Mostly, these will be designed just to let you know where we are in setting up and running the organization. There will be separate blogs/vlogs for tracking the progress of each participant and their build.
I look forward to talking with you all more as we really get this program rolling.
