* Since funding for "general operations" is an endangered species, Matter of Trust, Inc. (MofT) cultivates volunteer networks and gifts-in-kind (see our
Reuse Of Sociey's Abundance [ROSA] program with our ExcessAccess.com system). We hire independent contractors for core and new project management
& teams. We prefer to work out of home offices or in the field. We have teams of student interns, work-from-home moms, and senior citizen advisors
as well as volunteers. We are very resourceful and enjoy to work with low overhead, so that we can devote funds to our vital programs. We also fiscally
sponsor grassroots projects and guard 5% of that funding for administrative expenses. And since some donors skip years between grants or like to fund
new groups every year, we concentrate on projects that have a chance to become sustainable in their own right. Together, all these ideas have allowed us
navigate the system, achieve our goals, grow and thrive since 1998.
** Our oil spill hairmat manufacturing project launches in 2008, there is a large outlay of funds for machinery upfront. This program is in partnership
with The East Bay Depot For Creative Reuse and certain responsibilties such as warehouse staff / workmans comp / insurance will be their responsibility.
*** MofT's head office shares space with Excess Access. Excess Access donates administrative assistance, supplies and technical support for MofT.
