            Given the holiday season, the extensive burdens on every
            activist's energy these days, and a host of other
            complexities and circumstances, we've decided to break up
            the campaign into 3 phases.<br>
            <br>
          </div>
          For this first phase, our goal is to raise $15,000 - which
          will enable us to pull the permits, demo the walls for
          expansion of the area, and get most if not all of our plumbing
          work done.<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        The subsequent two phases will have goals of $20K each - though
        by the end of this first campaign we hope to have a solid lead
        or two on a significant grant or donor.<br>

            </div>
            <div>There are many dangling threads and the kitchen crew
              could definitely use more support to carry this off.
              Please do lend a hand, however which way you can!</div>
