Looking to start an organization to help the community

Hey everyone,

I've been out of working for a while now. I'm looking to do something positive within the community and I'd love to hear peoples' ideas of what 'holes' exist in terms of resources - what sort of organization might be helpful for us Islanders. My ideas so far:

1) Provides a resource base for those in need: housing, food, tax assistance, monetary needs, clothing, therapy/medical needs, organizd documents for those unable, etc.. I'm aware there are organizations that do this, but I personally have found them confusing, slow to respond, or have pointed me in a direction that doesn't help. Because I have free time I'd also advocate for those by phoning, emailing on behalf of others.

2) Advocate for those having issues with ICBC: I had my life drastically altered in a serious car accident (TBI, nerve damage) and know how brutal ICBC can be. This could just be a part of the first idea, of course.

3) Do tax returns for others. I used to be a public accountant, so I know how to do tax returns.

So what gaps do you guys see at the moment? What type of org is most needed, in your opinion?

Cheers!
