from Global Marketplace to Artcamp

Yes, I do want to find some more ways to help.

Right now we are working with 12 different foundations trying to get between
$5,000 and $40,000 dollars for our nonprofit
to use to buy items just from ArtCamp.

We will have you make the items and ship them here.

We will market them on Yahoo and eBay
and ship the orders from our warehouse here in Rocklin.

We would also handle all of the email and customer service.

Here is the good news. If we get the grant we will give you the money as working
capital. When we sell the items here we will send Artcamp a weekly check for the items.

Artcamp should be able to use the money to make more items
and finally have items in stock, ready for sale.

Send us some of those items and we sell them
and send Artcamp more money.

We see our nonprofit as a fulfillment center for Artcamp

Within certain guidelines
(like we can only accept small items for now like jewelry and small crafts)
you will decide what to make and when to ship it, we will sell it and send you the
money. You will control the decision as to what to send and when.

We will work for Artcamp as your USA based fulfillment center.

Its the same idea as your original Artisan-Owned Direct Distribution Model
except the items are here in the US, and we do the listing on eBay and Yahoo
and handle the customer service email. We can even set up a toll free number
on the site for orders. We would use our current nonprofit site for now
but could get you your own site again where you would control what was on it, etc.

You can see our current nonprofit site in Yahoo at http://www.globalmarketplace.org

We also have just set up as site on eBay
but it is not stocked with any inventory yet.

We are at the early stages, and have no offers of help yet. We do expect to get
some money but it may not be for several months. At some point an interested
foundation may want to talk with the coop leaders. I will keep you posted.
