DwightM Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 A great idea, will take work to promote. I saw something like that on the net, they auction off a home made canoe for the school sports team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirilonde Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Are you looking to get into the non-profit business or just give your fleet away to one that will be able to auction them off and benefit from this? I donated a kit/workshop to the Meadowbrook Waldorf School . They did the auction, I merely supplied the materials and mentored the building which was the item on the auction. Anyway, my point was to help an existing non-profit school, not get into fund raising. So, therefore, back to my original question as to your goal..............

woodman Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 To give the fleet away............And would like to generate enough interest and get volunteers to help supply materials and to assist in the building process to keep this going..not to make any money just be a supyier...To get an established organization to grab on to this idea that has media connections that would support this I think is the key...

Kudzu Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 No suggestions but it sounds like a good idea. I have thought about donating a boat to a good cause that has an auction. But being SOF I am not sure how well it would do locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
