I tried to look at your web site but it doesn`t function.
I was curious as to how you cover the costs of the free service.

I think it`s great that you feel "led" to help these people. Is this what is putting your business in jeopardy or are there other factors as well.
How long have you been in business?
You mention cash flow as the "issue" - do you need some cash for the short term or do you need to increase revenue?
Not sure how it works if you try and straddle the profit and non-profit world in the long run.
Bless you! I believe you are big hearted and there are resources in your community that you might connect with.
First - I would look to the churches in your community and I recommend Presbyterian because of their structure. You will need to be ready to present your biz to their church community and/or "Presbyterian Women" as they often will give support and small grants. Ask their Youth Director if they would help raise funds by doing a car wash event to raise fund for your cause. This event would also allow you to give car owners a flyer about your biz and its outreach. Call their offices and speak with their Church Secretary/Admin. to ask for direction.
Second - Next try any senior citizen organizations and local Social Services Agencies in your community, they may utilize your services and provide small grants.
Third - "You need to be able to recieve, if you truly want to give." God doesn`t want his people to starve he`s given you an angel of an idea and wants you to succeed. God is creativity and supports creativity thru his expression of us. You just need to ask...go girl! God speed! -kidz
I think the word is grant. Loan is a debt that you already can`t pay. Grants are financial support gifts, that are given to boost organizations through a time of transition and are given as a belief that this support will benefit a greater good. Not a handout to a failing business, but support for something they agree with and believe in. Don`t let false pride prevent you from your purpose. Help is there just be able to receive it, receive it, receive it! Repay the loan/grant with your good deeds by continuing your work of helping the people who truly need it. Your help to these people, is going to provide for a healthier community, you know the price of healthcare, think of yourself as affordible community-care. From the drop of water comes greater rings of hope. It is time for you to see your business differently, with community eyes, think big, believe in the vision.- kidz
I finally got to see your web site. You mention donations and your web site is a (dot) org - so my first question is - How is the company structured?
Also, I see you have been in business since 2003, so with some decent performance history, a loan might be possible. So my next questions:
How much are you seeking and for how long?
Have you talked with your bank? If so , what did they say?
