You haven't told us a plan, all you've provided is a daydream. Explain how you plan to use the $1500 dollars and why you think it will be self-sustaining. Explain what you intend to buy, where you intend to place the goods, how you intend to get people to use the goods, how you expect expansions to be funded, how much of your own time you expect to spend, whether or not you need other volunteers for labor and how you expect to get them, and whether or not you'll need more funds later on.

You're asking for donations without being specific. I can only guess that you're either ignorant or dishonest.
