Yesterday $55 was spent on helping a friend with rent, $10 was spent on groceries for him.
Today we spent $4 and some change on breakfast cereal and milk for some kids of a family who needed breakfast, and I ate with them.
$10 was given to a homeless friend I know really well to help him get a phone charger, he's got his resume out and is on the job hunt and needs a contact phone, so he's looking to get a charger for his phone to replace the one that was lost.
I'm really happy with how this is going so far.

Mission Statement
To share wealth with those in need in our community in a simple, neighbor-to-neighbor fashion.
We are trying to believe in sharing wealth instead of hoarding up wealth, not in word but in deed. And this is one way we do it.

Gandhi said that there is enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed. We are trying to respond to that in a small way.
Many of the people who we share money with are part of our potluck meal community at Neal Park as well as our Pilgrims in the Park church.
The money is to be shared for any need. All money spent is listed on this blog.
How to give to this
This account is a checking account in Dan's name.
PO BOX 2343
Bryan, Tx 77806
Checks need to be made out to Dan Kiniry
It's not in an organization's name because we don't have an official organization.
You can also give money directly to Dan. He promises not to steal it. It might not be optimal, but it's just a lot easier than starting a non-profit with positions and stuff. If you have any ideas of how to make this more better, please do share.
It's probably just as good or better just to directly help someone out, skipping over this fund. We have this fund because needs come up really often and this will help us meet those needs as they come up, since people often bring up their needs at the potlucks on the weekends.
