Abstract
In an era of large-scale budget cuts, community development practitioners face the continuing challenge of finding revenue for not only maintaining existing programs, but initiating new projects as well. This article describes a revenue-raising project created at the University of Georgia. The development of the initial project is presented using a case study approach. The spin-off programs created from the original project and the problems encountered with implementing innovative ideas in a large bureaucratic organization are reviewed. The importance of developing entrepreneurial skills is stressed throughout the article.
