Should I fix my leaky basement from the inside or the outside? [more inside]
posted on Jun 25, 2008 - 10 answers

I've decided to give away my economic stimulus check to a variety of charities and foundations. I'm trying to locate a particular charity which provided financial support to blues musicians in need of assistance with food, medical bills, home repairs, burial expenses, etc. I've located the Rhythm and Blues Foundation and it seems wonderful, but I do not think this is the organization I am looking for. I don't know much more except that I believe the org I am looking for was founded by one person and more recently than the R&B Foundation. I have lots of ideas for general donations but I'm looking to do something in this niche, so suggestions of any groups providing assistance to out of luck musicians would be great as well...

How much would it cost to raise a 900-square foot house a few feet & give it a new foundation?

Just looking for a rough idea of what to expect. [more inside]
