Great ideas TMF, you could develop a website concept in cooking from the pantry, whatever is on hand. Smart and timely.
Friends of mine are opening a new "Free Clinic" downtown and today they are painting it. Getting closer to opening. I want to help but was unsure what I could do. The director, a friend, just got back to me as I asked if they needed coffee. Because really, God forbid that my friends should do anything with no coffee resources. You see the theme evolving, I am sure.
Anyway the Director told me that they do not have coffee or a coffee pot and in fact they kitchen is a shell and they left that for last.
So guess what? New project! Someone needs to stop me from taking on volunteer work because as it is I wind up working until midnight some nights getting deadlines met in addition to my regular work.
Truly this is a great project and will serve a very under served population including migrant workers who are trying to get citizenship but are in the red tape loop and cant get basic health services for themselves or their children. Seeing a child suffer with a cold and the look on the Mothers face when she has no resources is one of the worst feelings ever and its just not ok.
Some folks have asked me how they funded this free clinic model and I have no idea but will find out and report back if anyone is interested.
Have a great day all.
