Once a qualified person is located, funding will still be an issue. MSD is willing to pay one half of the funding leaving DSDC the responsibility of obtaining the other half. One possibility is a grant through Mrs. Jill Jica's resources. Mr. Nolan is taking this for action. Mrs. Becky Kelly stated that Food Lion grocery chain has a non-profit organization program in which vouchers are used.
Organizations obtain vouchers branded by bar code that are valid for three to four days.
The organization distributes the vouchers to the public as necessary who in turn hand them to the Food Lion cashier during checkout. After totaling the patron's purchases, the cashier scans the voucher and a percentage of the sale is given to the organization. This started a discussion of DSDC funding and membership drives. It was determined that to have worthwhile fund drives, DSDC needs to have a larger membership. Mr. Foster continued by stating that he found a free Internet service that provides a means of receiving donations online.
