Additional Disclaimers (see link at bottom):
1. Please note, Plan Milestones & Events are subject to change, pending action of the President and vote of the Directors, pursuant to our Articles, Bylaws and Policies.
2. We are in "Launch Phase" now, which will be followed by "Phase1 Scale-up", thru 2015, as stated in this site. During this period, Plan Milestones & Events remain fluid and subject to change. Once the Organization reaches full funding and "stable operations", which we expect by first quater 2017 (1Q17), by our campaign "The Road to $300K in donations and 1000 Members & Clients", we expect Plan Milestones to be more stable, as determined by annual planning cycles and the fuller Staff and Board of Directors.
3. Therefore, we appreciate your patience during this time! If you wish to help us reach our Plan goals and "stable operations" sooner, please give us you best level of financial support at this time - your help will be greatly appreciated - and we thank you in advance!
