Not to beat a dead horse!

I think you guys have missed the point.  The original post wanted to know
where to get the shovels not how to finance their purchase.  There were many
good suggestions on how to get the shovels that were being requested.  Then,
in a spirit that I find all too common in the non-profit world, some said
hey why buy shovels when you can get them for free.  I do not have a problem
with non-profits asking for help when it is needed.  I do have a problem
with non-profits that want to get everything for free at the expensive of
local businesses.
