8A SOLVING THE PROBLEM

My goal/idea is to have a community-oriented restaurant that will take a portion of every sale and save it in a fund that will be used to put on free community meals periodically.  A potential problem is turning enough profit to make a living, pay employees well, and still put on free meals.  My hope is that customers would be on board with the mission enough to pay a slight premium in support of the cause.  If the restaurant were registered as a non-profit organization, it may be eligible for government subsidies, as well as (hopefully) periodic donations from churches/ministries in the area.  Additionally, using seasonal ingredients will help keep the cost down for the community meals.

    Chase,
    I think that your idea has the possibility to work if carried out properly. Maybe implement the meals quarterly to allow for the fund to build? I also think you need to make sure you market the events as community-oriented restaurant gatherings to make sure you have a diverse crowd.
