Remote Legal & Finance Volunteer Projects

We are in the process of trying to reopen our store after severe flooding March 2020. We just put down a deposit to get our electrical panel repaired and are now working to raise funds to get our roof repaired so all of our new electrical isn't damaged from rains. We do have a contractors estimate for complete repairs of our building, but hope to at least get enough to get the roof done. We are hoping to get open by 10/31/2020 to be able to start generating revenue to re open our programs by 2021. We could use some help fundraising for this, OR,...if you know a roofer willing to help us out, that would be Amazing! Once we get our electrical power fixed, we'll also be looking for help cleaning, painting and getting donations organized - I'll post under another project for that. mahalo
