Fort Collins Creator Hub
Solicitation of Founders
http://www.fortcollinscreatorhub.org/

Fort Collins Creator Hub is opening a Maker Space in Fort Collins.

A Maker Space is both a community of people and a physical location that
contains tools and equipment you might not have access to at home.
Exciting things will be invented, made, tinkered with, painted,
engineered, crafted, programmed, sewed, built, and more! Come and join
us to create new things, learn skills at classes, meet interesting
people, and teach your own classes.

We have identified a location for the Creator Hub. As soon as we raise
sufficient funds to cover our startup and early operating costs, we will
sign the lease. Those costs are:

- Rent for the physical location.

- Insurance.

- 501c3 filing fees.

- Basic initial equipment purchases.

- Minimum account balance to avoid fees, provide a prudent buffer, and
   cover any delays in banking early membership dues.

We are offering you the opportunity to contribute towards these costs,
and ensure the quick and successful provision of our physical location.
If you contribute at least $300 by the end of May 2015, we'll bestow the
title of Founder upon you, recognize your status at our location and on
our website, and have our eternal gratitude. You'll also have
contributed significantly to making an awesome community resource a reality.

Contributions may be made by the following means:

- Check payable to "Fort Collins Creator Hub":

   - Handed to any Board Member in person.

opening our doors to you.
