I choose the something else for profit as reward encourages involvement, however there is one avenue of not for profit I would like to explore, either here or with others, which is to group some business people together to create a not for profit homeless organisation.

Basic overview - staffed by homeless people, who are provided shelter and taught new skills, manufacturing basic products that are no longer manufactured in the UK, with the aim of paying them a basic wage, getting them off the street and providing them the ability to get back into the job market properly, whilst reducing the UKs import needs.

IP2, you need to get in touch with Kerry Santo, she'd be very keen to chat to you I'm sure. Kerry rose from homelessness to providing for homeless people.
PM me if you would like her contact details

I went for not for profit something else, IP2's idea is genius, and would be willing to help out in any way I can (e.g. on branding logos website e.t.c). Perhaps this could some sort of association business' can join.
