General Company Description
The Business we are in:
The National Community Network and Coalition of Highlands, INC to be referred by as the NCNCHINC, is non profit charitable organization. We are in the business of community service. The services we render are multimedia and contributions to the community are made through our profits, grants and philanthropic gifts.
Mission Statement:
To build a better community by organizing constituents that want to do community work. To solve the contemporary problems that plague the communities and demographics we serve. We gather information and address problems one issue at a time.
Company Goals and Objectives:
The goal of the NCNCHINC is to carryout the purpose of the organization which is charitable in nature. Though we are non profit, it is imperative that we produce income through multimedia services and retail sales, to fund our charitable services and maintain our overhead. Our objective is to produce enough money to form a foundation that will cover all basic overhead costs annually out of the interest.
Business Philosophy:
As a charitable organization we serve many demographics. As servants of the poor, we also serve the well off by carrying out the duties of service with pride. We serve the entertainment enthusiast and professionals as well through Jones Communications and Records Multimedia.
We are in the worst recession since the great depression. While philanthropic is down the need for charitable services is sky rocketing. We have a unique strategy we know that demand for paid services are down. But the demand for services is up because people need things they cannot afford in this economy.
We are a startup non profit corporation in a very unique position. We have $125G equity on properties owned. And as a non profit corporation we do not pay taxes on the properties. We have no mortgage.
During hard economic times people tend to use more entertainment and it is usually local in nature due to afford abilities. We can charge less and provide superior services for the buck and expand into real estate as an investment for housing programs, restaurants and other office spaces.
The organization is ran by Frank Paul Jones aka Frank Paul Gambino among other alias. The board of directors are his siblings, Egeria, Lujuana and Ella. The Jones Family membership is an extension of Paul to the world. Anyone can be a Jones!
Frank Paul Jones aka Paul Castellano is known as a entrepreneur businessman. With two associate degree one in paralegal studies and one in Industrial Management Technology with a background in Electronics Technology. He was found to be incompetent to proceed in a case (Misdemeanor) that was weak, but even as a two time graduate that were both with High Honors, he could not proceed. Why? He is engaged in covert operations past, present and future. He is a nutcase? No! He is an ingenious misunderstood.
We are a non profit corporation active in the state of Florida. We have our solicitation license, tax ID and is pending for our 501 c 3 statuses. We own our headquarters location without mortgage worthy of $125G and we need our roof fixed/replaced to pass the building code inspections to get our business license.
Products and Services
Jones Communications and Records Multimedia referred to as [JCR Multimedia]:
Location: 923 South A Avenue, 2nd Floor, Avon Park, Florida 33825-4114
JCR Multimedia consist of a publishing company and recording studio/record company, both qualify as non profit because we charge below market prices and often to projects that do not require a fee from the customer through a sponsorship program.
Jones Communications is the publishing company and Jones Records is the recording studio/record company. It will consist of a Non Profit Newspaper and we will hold writing workshops for people of all ages, who are interested in getting published in the Newspaper.
Jones Communications:
The Newspaper will be weekly and free to the readers, this will insure that we gain instant high circulation in the Highlands County Area. The Newspaper will be self supporting through advertisement. Our philosophy is that if we put out a Newspaper that carries local & world news and give them to volunteers to distribute them for free or a donation at the local business districts and malls as the clientele exiting to reduce waste, because we do not want our paper to end up in the garbage cans in the mall, but in the patrons cars and homes. We will be able to guarantee high circulation to our advertisers to insure a profit margin once the breakeven point is established. We will take bids on distribution of hardcopies and sought after sponsorship to create an internet news website.
Other than making money which is so important, we will in essence inform the community about issues important to the community. We will promote the agendas of the NCNCHINC. We will promote music and entertainment in support of Jones Records and other entertainment entities.
The bottom line is that the newspaper will have a lot of serious content, but will also it will be entertaining loaded with gossip columns as well.
Jones Records:
Jones Records is a non profit independent record company. We are not trying to compete with major labels directly. We distribute through companies like ReverbNation and Disc Makers, under the label Jones Records. We will use short term contracts of no more than one year at a time to be able to apply these agreements to our annual budget and fiscal year agendas.
Jones Records will be the starting point for many artist and a place for an artist to come home to end a career. Also, Jones Records is a place where a major artist as well as local talent can do charitable work as well. For example our FindCure-CureAIDS campaign, calls for both the establish and un-established artists to contribute in anyway they can.
As a local recording studio we will record artist who would like to work with the Gambino Productions Team. To be eligible as a non profit record company we will charge a rate of about 50% the going rate per hour to record.
JCR Multimedia is non profit and falls under a 501 c 3 type organization because it is charitable, because all monies earned by JCR Multimedia that is a profit will go to the Eston E. L. Roberts Foundation for distribution on the purpose guidelines of the NCNCHINC.
The Eston E. L. Roberts Foundation:
Located: 923 South A Avenue, 2nd Floor, Avon Park, Florida 33825-4114
This is how we do charitable work, which does not require fees from the customers. First off you need to understand our purpose to see how our monies will be distributed:
From Section 2 of the NCNCHINC Bylaws:
The Purpose
The National Community Network and Coalition of Highlands, INC. is charitable organization organized as a community network and coalition in support for the Youth, Veterans, single parents with children, to prevent recidivism, promote, sell and exploit multimedia and to support businesses in order to bring about community betterment and social improvement for the greater community at-large.
The bottom line is this, we earn money though our services mentioned above, and fund raisers such as foundation grants, government grants and philanthropic gifts, all to support our non profit purposes. Our fiscal year is October 20th of each year.
Being a non profit corporation creates an innate tax shelter. We are not responsible for paying taxes on our properties or purchases. We cannot sell stock on our brilliant ideas, but money is to be made by all parties involved with this operation. We can create fair salaries for our employees and officers in the future. In the beginning at start up prior to any projects or successes, everyone in the NCNCHINC are on voluntary status to include myself. The NCNCHINC will however pay for all expenses and perhaps if possibly handout a few stipends to staff because we all want to be compensated for our work if possible even in community services.
We have low to overhead to operate at a professional level. We own our headquarters building which is two stories tall. most buildings are one story here in Avon Park, Florida. Because of the good use of space on 923 A Avenue, Avon Park, FL, we can run two fully independent but interlinked operations concurrently; being the Eston E. L. Roberts Foundation aka "the Purpose" and JCR Multimedia under one budget, corporate seal and fiscal agenda.
We are a unit of brethrens with a similar interest. We only invite people who want to do community services into the Unit and this is often determined by past practices. Our music is about its content in terms of spirituality, politics and social issues, that is the Gambino Production Team's Seal. Therefore we deal mostly with people committed to a cause in the studios. It is our hopes that we gain recognition not necessarily by our sales but by our affect on the hearts of mankind. This is the true formula for longevity.
We have to do a cost analysis and know our breakeven point before making a price list.
Sincerely,
Rev. Frank Paul Jones
