“| Explanation:| Mission Statement Supporting Black lives in underserved communities through education health wellness expanding workforce and advocating for civil and humane living conditions. Organization Overview Black Lives Support is in the process of establishing programs aimed at uplifting underserved communities. Our initiatives address challenges such as housing insecurity limited access to childcare community disinvestment and financial illiteracy. While currently in early development weve designed a phased growth strategy that balances direct services with revenue-generating components to ensure long-term sustainability. Program Services - 2024 Activities The 2024 operational year primarily focused on foundational planning. The following program areas represent our planned activity and development trajectory expected to scale as funding and infrastructure are secured. Health & Wellness - Community Barbershop Initiative This initiative supports wellness and employment readiness through grooming services. Operating six days per week with payroll coverage for 20 hours per day the barbershop services approximately 30 clients per day. The average service donation is $30. After payroll and a projected $4,000 monthly lease net income is projected at approximately $8,000 monthly. This program not only provides dignity and self-care but also trains and employs licensed professionals from the community. Childcare Facility & Nannies Program The organization will launch a licensed childcare facility serving 24 children with priority access for working parents and underserved families. Services will operate on a sliding-scale donation model. A complementary Nannies Program will connect families with vetted childcare providers. The organization will collect a 15% administrative fee from each participating client. Based on a projected minimum of 100 clients monthly this program could yield $30,000 in short-term revenue and will help subsidize the childcare facilitys operating costs. Community Awareness: Film Arts & Civic Education This initiative raises awareness about social justice inequality and civic engagement through workshops and film. Planned projects include low-budget documentaries ~$50,000 per film and efforts to secure distribution with projected placement revenue between $150,000-$300,000. Community events such as art shows and storytelling nights will promote healing and visibility for marginalized voices. Environmental Engagement Through partnerships with city agencies this program conducts street clean-ups environmental education and provides court-approved community service hours. These efforts aim to revitalize public spaces and promote local stewardship. Community Center Development Our long-term goal includes establishing a community center offering educational workshops after-school programs job readiness training and recreational activities. The center will generate revenue through program-tier memberships and space rentals creating a self-sustaining hub for services. Low-Income Housing & Emergency Shelter Plans are in place to develop a shelter serving 50 individuals scalable to 100. The facility will provide temporary housing hygiene resources and case management services. This program directly addresses homelessness and housing insecurity among vulnerable populations. Compensation Plan & Governance All 2024 operations were volunteer-led. No compensation was paid in 2024. Officers and volunteers intend to transition to paid roles as funding allows. A Compensation Committee will be established to ensure all compensation aligns with IRS guidelines and is transparently documented. The Board will not set its own compensation. Any payment to board members will follow written policy and be tied to specific grants or program roles.”
