  <circumstances>I am an unemployed individual who has used pro-bono IT support to help design the site which is a badly needed and very useful resource not only for the under and unemployed people in Minnesota but for the people who serve them.  I would very much like to be able to continue working on and expanding the site and make a living doing it.  </circumstances>

  <green>This new website is being used as a one-stop shop for unemployed individuals and for professionals who serve them.  The plan is that the site will be self sustaining with ad sales.</green>

  <it-budget>We do not have an IT budget as yet.</it-budget>
  <justification>The website is currently operational with traffic that will in all liklihood support the sale of ads.  Traffic on the site for the month of November was over 9000 unique visitors with 3/4 of a million hits.  We do not have the experience nor the expertise to devise a marketing and advertising plan which is now needed.

I just now received this information from the St. Paul Pioneer Dispatch...who is suggesting that this service would help to ensure that the site is able to be sustained.</justification>
