Think Green Proposal By: Joely Mart
Story • One day I was walking along the beach and enjoying the view, but their was something wrong. There was garbage along the edge of the water. This made me very upset. So, I got a couple of my family and friends together and we cleaned all of the garbage up. After we were done, I brought up the idea of starting a non-profit organization to help find new ways to keep our town clean and pollution free.
Our Mission Think Green’s mission is to: • Help make sure that our town is staying as clean and pollution free as possible. • Want to get as many people as possible to reduce, reuse, and recycle. As an organization we will: • Go around town and pick up garbage • Put recycling bins around town
Situation: • We don’t have nearly enough room. • We are stuck in my basement. • We only have 3 workers. • We have • If we ever want Think Green to be successful we need to expand our branches. • We are located in a small town, therefor we don’t have very many contributors.
Employee situation: • We don’t have nearly enough employees to get anything done. • We need more employees to help me keep organized and to keep a schedule of everything.
Action: • Rent a building- renting a building would cost about $1,000 a month. • Buy all new office supplies. • We will hire more employees.
Status Quo • If Angel funds decides not to fund me this money it will: • We will stay crammed in the basement • We wont be able to hire more employees • We will have to put all of our money towards a new building and supplies instead of putting it towards expanding our branches.
Recommendation: • Leasing Fee- $800-$1,000 a month • Number of rooms- 12 and a main room • Number of offices- 5, 10’x10’ • Number of cubicles we need- we will need 5, 6’x6’ cubicles to start us off • Main room dimensions- 25’x 36’
Implement: • Cost of office chairs- $45 • Cost of office cubicles- $200 each • Cost of computers- $400 each • Cost of printer/fax machine- $400
Evaluate: • A new building will improve the look, comfort, organization, and the image of our facility, not just now but for years to come. • We are asking for a minimum of $2,600 for space and staff. • If possible, we are asking for another $2,000 for our main big office supplies. • Once we have the building ready, we will be able to start hiring more help. • Total, we will need a minimum of about $4,600.
