THE TIME HAS COME

for...

THE WRIGHT STREET RESOURCE CENTER!

Dear Milwaukee,

mNSC is very excited to announce that we have, with your help, found ourselves a home. mNSC, in partnership with the Riverwest Health Initiative, and the Milwaukee Area Time Exchange, will begin build-out on a 2000 square foot Community Resource Center, located @ 901 e Wright Street, as of mid-July, with our doors expected to be officially open to the public come September 15th. We are all delighted at the positive public response and support for the project and ask that those of you, the active members of the Milwaukee community, to continue your participation through this next work-laden step into permanence. With funds raised, a business proposal readied, and the continued support from you, we can expect a smooth construction phase, and a happy grand opening by summer's end.

Thanks to all who have worked to make this dream come true!

What you can do to help:

*Come take a tour of the prospective space.

*Give us your ideas for what you would like to see grow from a permanent location.

*Jump on board with the planning process. We are you... You are us. There is plenty to be done and we could use your help!

*Come get your hands dirty! We will need help in areas of drywall, painting, flooring, gardening, etc.... Use this volunteer time to earn Time Exchange Credits!!! (http://www.mketimeexchange.org/)

*Join us Tuesdays @ 12pm and/or Sundays @ 12pm for our Community Work Days!

*Become a fiscal sponsor... although in practice we work to perpetuate a culture of sharing, mNSC cannot pay for this space without your help. Email mNSC to get involved as a sponsor!

*Spread the word! We are planning on opening our doors to the community in the Fall of 2010. We cannot wait to see you all there!

MANY THANKS TO MILWAUKEE FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT. WE WILL SEE YOU SOON!
