What we're doing is trying to get all of the money together as rapidly as we can.

It's another step, a huge step closer for the (center).

We're not necessarily interested in just trying to start up any old co-op here. They're just spectacular stores.

Obviously, we've got more (expenses) here than we've got money.

We receive no federal dollars. We're federally mandated to respond to disasters, but our money comes strictly from donations, so this is a great shot in the arm.

But we were able to eventually get through that and pay back what we lost, and we got our money for charity back on the upswing again.
