There's always going to be something in your way like that, remember she's just an obstacle not an unmovable limitation you have to live with; please don't let it discourage you. I've been fighting the administration at my school with a thousand and one projects-- anywhere from starting a JROTC program to fixing the school's water foutnains-- where I'd show up with full plans and all steps taken care of, 400 signatures and even the funding and they'd shit on me because it's too inconvenient for them to sign some documents. I took that shit cause after some time I felt that I had no choice; you're moving forward with a really good thing despite a thousand times that same resistance, so you better keep us posted until your non-profit becomes the biggest in the U.S. (edit - didn't mean that as a pep talk more of a desperate plea in search of good people actually being successful)
