  1. Helping Hands By: Haley Barritt

  2. Introduction • Group that grows our own crops • Ship food to support people in need • Deliver a 6 month supply of food per family in Africa • Single building on a large plot of land • Hold local events where people can contribute • We’ve come across a few problems with spacing • We could use the help and donations

  3. Situation • Some don’t feel comfortable sharing info at events (privacy) • Few part time volunteers don’t have enough space to do their job (cramped) – looking for pay and expansion/growth • Not enough space to operate/move machinery equipment • We need to raise more awareness • Bring in donators to a place fit for our needs

  4. Actions • Create a personal office for every worker – privacy, cost ($1,000/office) • Create one large office for every two workers – privacy, cheaper ($1,200/2 offices) • Knock out the walls of existing offices to make rooms larger – save money (not having to purchase as much new), additions • Create a large 50x50 ft. room for machinery equipment – maneuverability ($2,500) • Hire 20 more official workers - $7.50/hour • Status Quo – If we don’t receive the funds, we would remain same and the company may go downhill since expansion did not take place

  5. Recommendations • Knock down the walls to expand office space and use dividers • $1,200/2 offices (10 rooms total – 20 split sections); $2,500 machinery room • Dimensions: Office 25x25x9 ft.; Machinery room 50x50x15 ft. • Walls:Knock out walls; Support beams; Dividers are inserted • Doors:Office door 7x3 ft.; Machinery door 9x5 ft. • Rooms: Create from what we have, then add on to existing building • Paint: 30 gallons of 2-in-1 primer paint; colors are neutral • Will offer more space, privacy, and save money in the long run

  6. Implement • Asking for $14,500 for total cost of rooms; $156,000 total workers/year (paid every 2 wks.) • $170,500 total funds • If our funds are accepted, we will do the following immediately: • Put an ad in the paper • 50-50 raffle • Start the building/expansion • Create a billboard • These options will create advertisements and produce money • We will send a progress report after 60 days to provide proof of success (increase of donations and satisfied staff)

  7. Evaluate • With 2 months of funding, new offices and rooms will: • Improve the sense of privacy • Give workers more space to do their job properly • Allow for machinery to move/function properly • Comfortable space will bring more workers (pay for salaries) • Workers and contributors will be satisfied, bringing in more contributions

  8. Stories • Now that you know what our company aims to do, we would like to share a story with you • Jonah, age 5, Ethiopia • Wrote a letter back to us • Even at a young age, his story touched us (adult most likely helped write) • Mom and dad lost in earthquake • Found a week after in the rubble • No food, starving to death • He ended with, “Thank you with all my heart. You saved me.”

  9. Closing • Let’s help more children like Jonah • Just imagine the smile on their face • A small amount of work can make all the difference for them • It would greatly benefit the health of the African population • Thank you for your time
