Business Plan
I only want to provide a Community Monthly Newsletter for all of our residents. I plan to conduct fundraisers throughout the year to help to fund my Newsletter. My first fundraiser brought in a total of $232.00. That was just enough to publish Issue #1. I am a local business owner here in Mitchell and have owned and managed my business for 17 years now. I am highly respected in my community and since I am able, I want to give back to my community with this monthly Newsletter Publication. I feel as though the Newsletter will bring our community members even closer together than we already are I have owned my business here in Mitchell, Oregon for 17 years now. My business is and has been successful and provided my community with goods and services that are not only needed, but also loved by the locals and the tourist and all of the visitors that our town receives from all over the world. I also own an airbnb here in Mitchell which maintains a steady booking rate and receives excellent reviews. I love to stay busy and remain focused on whatever tasks are at hand. I am willing and able to publish a Community Monthly Newsletter for my town and simply need help with the funding.
