A NEW 501(c)3 IN TALLAHASSEE
Hello Friends, I am David Hawkins, I am the Founder and CEO of HAWKS FRIENDS, Inc. I started "HAWKS FRIENDS" to give back to our Local Veterans. I have
lived in Tallahassee Florida for 59 Years, it is my Home. I have many Relatives that have served in the Armed Forces as well as several immediate Family members. I myself joined the
Air Force back in October 1981. I attended Boot Camp in San Antonio Texas and that is where I was diagnosed with Scoliosis, Curvature of the Spine. I accepted an Honorable Discharge at
the end of Boot Camp. I have always heard never let anyone operate on your Back and to this day, against my Doctors wishes, no one has.
Our services will be FREE to Veterans so course, we need help to make this possible. I am happy to say that, no one at "HAWKS FRIENDS" will receive a
Salary, we are ALL Volunteers. Our plan is to start out small and expand when possible. For now, we will only be trying to raise just $50,000 a Year to cover everything, Rent, Utilities,
some Advertising, Snacks and Drinks for the Meetings and the Big Annual Event. I am waiting to get started until we have at least the First couple Years Finances covered, I would hate to
start having the Meetings and then have to shut down for a while after a couple Months because we ran out of Funds. It would be great to find a Corporate Sponsor to fund the initial $50,000.
I have been wanting to give back to our local Veterans for a long time and now, I am doing what I can, to get it started the best I can with what I have. I feel we
cannot do enough for our Veterans so, I created HAWKS FRIENDS, Inc., a recent 501(c)3 Nonprofit (83-1352360) in Tallahassee. Once we get up and running, we will be dedicated to helping our
local Military Veterans with Crisis Intervention using "PEER to PEER" Enter Acting on the First and Third Wednesdays of the Month as well as a Military Ball Event Annually in the near
future. Any Donation will help, Thank You and God Bless.
THE COUPON BOOK
To raise the needed funding, I am choosing not to beg our Government for it. Instead, I am taking an idea from my School Days back the 70’s & 80’s and will be Creating
and Printing 3000 special Coupon Books filled with about 100 Coupons offering 20% to 50% off Services and Products. I am seeking your Permission to include your Businesses in the Coupon Books.
Since this will be the first Coupon Book, the plan is to have the Coupons expire December 31, 2027 and will not be valid with other Offers or Coupons.
The goal is to start off by printing just 3000 Coupon Books that have 20% to 50% Off Coupons from at least 100 Businesses. The Coupon Books will then be sold for just
$50 each where the Money goes to HAWKS FRIENDS to keep it going as well as advertising, Printing and marketing the Coupon Books as well as the participating Businesses. There will also be a
special Coupon inside each Coupon Book that the Purchasers of the Book get to fill out and send in where one of them will be chosen to receive a very special Gift from HAWKS FRIENDS.
