Hi everyone! First off I would like to thank everyone for their support in making our first auction a huge success! In total we raised $1021! $475.50 of that was sent back to the sellers which includes shipping costs. So all in all the CCPS made $545.50! Pretty dang awesome for our first auction ever!
Everyone has sent payment and all sellers have been instructed to ship the plants as soon as possible. If everyone would please respond here as soon as they received all of their winnings it would make things a whole lot easier for us to figure out if there were any problems with shipping. I hope everyone is happy with their purchases and with the auction.
So you all know exactly what your money is going to, we will be using the profits from this auction to pay the government fees for becoming a 501(c)(3) non profite organization. This process can cost as little as $460 or as much as $1110 depending on a number of factors. That is just in fees paid to the government! We are trying to do this without having to hire a lawyer, but we may end up needing one to complete the process. If any of you know a lawyer that has experience in non profits and you think they would be willing to help us please let us know.
Thanks again everyone for your incredible support!
Mason President and Co-founder CCPS
