We had an excellent meeting with the Coastal Community foundation about the LiveStreets idea. They gave us a bunch of technical advice in moving forward, as well as some great new ideas. Some of the big takeaways for the meeting were:
1. Start small and keep your goals practical
2. Put in a lot of planning up front and don't just jump into it (we hope that's what we are doing)
3. Consider working under the umbrella of an established non-profit for a few years
4. The alliances seem to be the key to this venture, so get to work on sealing those
5. Expect a lot of work for a long period of time to get LiveStreets off the ground
The CCF also directed us to some excellent sources for setting up a non-profit, as well as some potentially beneficial contacts. Big thanks to everyone at the CCF!!!
