NC Non-Profit Status: Check!
Jordan is distributing paperwork for signatures today, so The People, Yes should be well on it’s way to NC non-profit status. The federal process comes next, and believe me, that’s where Jordan will earn his pro-bono dinners and drinks. ;-)
Many thanks to the inital Board members who are joining me to try to shape this idea into a reality:

Once we’re more involved with the community and actually begin fundraising, I’ll most likely add a few more people to the mix… definitely one active participant from the homeless community itself.
Until then, I’m looking forward to working with this fine group of technologists, bloggers and community activists to get this puppy singing.
Stay tuned.

Congratulations! That paper trail is a tedious one to walk, but I suspect great things await you at the other end.
thanks, lex. i’m really psyched to have such a great group of people — and community — to work with on this.
