Does anyone have any suggestions on how to find business partners and investors?

I am currently working on trying to start my own business. Here's my idea...

I want to open a restaurant where I would work with a local shelter to hire homeless people (who can't get jobs elsewhere, because they don't have an address) and help them get a leg up. My goal is to be able to work out a deal with the shelter wherein my employees would be able to forgo any shelter costs in exchange for putting their wages into a special account, either with me, or with a local bank, until they have enough saved for first month's rent and security deposit on a place of their own.

In addition, I would use my own produce and herbs, as well as working with local farmers and suppliers, to make my own recipes in order to offer healthful food at an affordable price, all the while helping to strengthen the community. I would also have a little gift shop where people could sell things on consignment, and a portion of all profits would go to the shelter to help them with costs.

I have already taken into account all the things that could go wrong by hiring the homeless, so please, only positive feedback. Thank you, in advance, for your help.

Blessed Be
