“We are able to impact the meat processing industry more because of support from our generous donors.”

Making Ends Meat
Secure funding is essential for any organization to succeed.
CMIT has a two-pronged plan to ensure the organization’s long-term viability.
1: First CMIT will fundraise toward initial start-up costs and early operations. We will ask Founding Contributors to make donations in the following categories:

Founding Contributors will receive a special plaque for their contributions and be featured prominently on a Founder’s Recognition display in CMIT offices. They will also benefit from special pricing when they work with CMIT.
2: Secondly CMIT will promote the organization and build our revenue streams through fees for services, company-specific projects, product and packaging development and other sources. Initial projects are already underway.
We’d love to hear your suggestions on how we can fund and build this vital new organization. We’d also love to have your help.
