Bumping this thread back up a bit based on your other thread...
Financial worries are a big concern-- so it would seem like you need to raise more than 1000 dollars... a lot more than that...
Don't be so headstrong and stubborn to want to do things your way, that worked for Frank Sinatra but seldom does it work in the real world that you don't want government money... it's money and if it means some additional paperwork - then so what... it also might help to get you referrals for clients.
You're in Canton... biggest thing I know of in Canton is the football hall of fame... I'm sure that football players have their share of addictions and the NFL likes to be seen as altruistic... It'd be a long shot, bu I'd set up some meetings with them asking for some help... maybe a meet and greet with some HOF players... etc...
BUT what you haven't responded to... is have you set yourself up as a non-profit? and the house you want to buy - is it zoned for what you want to do?
