Hurry up And Wait!!

There is nothing more frustrating in non-profit world than waiting on your 501c3 status to come though. We last heard it would be another month. ARGGG! We are in need of funds people! We are trying to raise money with fundraisers, but we can't to anything without that stinking number!! In the meantime, we work on things like policies and procedures for volunteers and potential employees in the future. We work on defining our positions within the organization and what we are okay with and what we are not in regards to fundraisers, grant options, business hours, etc. It is a long and slow process that sometimes feels painful. But I know we are working on important stuff and we will thank ourselves later. So, while we are a bit anxious to see things move ahead, we realize that we are okay where we are as well.

Hurry up and wait! That's us.

Oh, be sure to check out the work we are doing on the website. We have a picture up and some color. But understand it is a work in progress...www.riseresourcecenter.org
