Strong challenge

We have got a strong challenge regarding the coverage of our operating expenses – renting / running of our Hurdal base, car, office and salary costs are mainly covered by own activity. Above is a summary of our challenges in covering operating costs.
.
Main activity is offer of information service since I as foundation manager is journalist by profession. Information department in county Akershus has for many years been main customer. Some income is also received by renting out rooms to temporary workers in Hurdal.
.
This message was received yesterday: Stop in the delivery to the county. Reason is limited budget for using freelance journalists...
.
The consequence for Safety Shelter is a proximately loss - this year - of about NOK 100.000 or about 12.000 €. Very obvious: we have to look for alternative solutions...
.
It's also true that the journalist work is time demanding and has resulted in lack of capacity for important ministry challenges.
.
New solutions have to be worked out. We need God's wisdom and intervention and ask for prayer support...
.
We – I have STOP in delivery of journalistic report to the county’s web page because of budget problems… Could be a loss of about 50.000 PLN for the rest of the year… The countie's webpage with one story made of me...
