This week is an exciting week. Students from the College of William and Mary are here for their Alternative Spring Break. Met with them last night. Great group. This AM did a quick hour on poverty before half came with me to food distribution and half went to work on cleaning out our storage unit.
Cleaning the storage unit is a huge help. We've been paying $65.oo/month to store stuff and we are not quite sure what is even in there. In addition, we've been doing this for two years which means we've paid more than the value of what is stored. I mean, do the math. I did and what a waste. Can't afford that. This is part of being a very hands on Executive Director. I don't like to micro manage but I do want to know where your dollars are going and I want a big bang for your buck. You want your money to go to helping folks and so do I.
I've been agitating since early fall to get this cleaned out and it looks like tomorrow will be the last day. Thank you William and Mary for helping us make this happen. Of course, having no snow also helps.
