>>1811563On the cost side, we have to pay property taxes (unusually high in my city), water/sewer, electric, internet, and 'consumables' (mostly hygiene stuff). Toilet paper #1, soap, hand degreaser, occasionally cleaning brushes, mops, buckest, etc. But like I said, there's no problem balancing the books. I'm not naive, I get that this is an "equity complaint".
>>1811568You get it. There's a couple of companies, local w/ national presence, and someone(s) there believes in the ideal.
But non-profits, charities, donations, etc is a fuckin weird world. The donors (cash or parts) are definitely set on "getting their money's worth", and they're quick to pull out if the reality doesn't fit the image in their head. If anyone's having a hard time imagining it, cut to the chase and call 'lobbying' instead.
