About This Project
Use Of Funds
$3,949 Tipping Point Goal
The tipping point covers our bare-bones incorporation costs. With your help, and when we reach our ‘tipping point’ goal, we will have enough monies to fund our operations through this transitional period while we achieve our 501(c)(3) status. Should we reach our full goal, we will have earned the monies to fund our much needed marketing and educational plans that will broaden our reach, such as instructional packets with photographs and educational videos, and web support for remote chapters. In addition, we will be able to add more yarns to our inventory to make wigs that appeal to all ages.
