The Phase I Goal
Immediate fundraising goal: $421,999 to $1,000,000++ to launch Radako’s mission-ready, operations-based model anchored by at least one fully equipped Mobile Mission Unit—a modern, technology-enabled mobile environmental studio designed to expand Radako’s impact across California, the West Coast, the Midwest, and ultimately nationwide.
To support stable operations, Radako will also lease or purchase a commercial studio / operational space (depending on total funds raised) to dock and secure the Mobile Unit, store equipment, maintain power/communications infrastructure, and provide a dependable base for ongoing work.
