			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I met with the Foundation for Enhancing Communities last Friday and, well &#8211; that&#8217;s probably not the route I&#8217;ll be going with this.</p>
<p>The Foundation for Enhancing Communities requires that potential programs go through a little vetting process to ensure their cause is worthy, and that part I&#8217;m not particularly worried about.  However, they also ask for around $700+ to start up and more than that per year to keep the program going.</p>
<p>This is starting out small, so to me, that&#8217;s a little ridiculous.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s the game plan now?  I&#8217;ll probably just get Volunteers of Central PA going on my own without outside help (though I will likely fish around for an unofficial sponsor or two).  Keep your eyes peeled in the next few weeks.  Should be fun. :)</p>
