A 20/20 vision can help a child succeed in school and gain the confidence to thrive in life. Empowering the underprivileged to achieve 20/20 vision free of cost. Ainak is a nonprofit organization based in the Silicon Valley, California, dedicated to improving vision and well-being of school children in under-resourced and underserved communities in California. Our primary mission is to provide free eye exams and prescription eyeglasses to those who may not have access to proper eye care. Established with the belief that 20/20 vision can significantly impact a child's academic success and overall confidence, Ainak collaborates with local schools and nonprofits to extend our reach and make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals facing vision challenges. Through our services, we aim to empower communities by enhancing vision health and fostering opportunities for success in education and life. The need for accessible vision care is indeed significant, as highlighted by the concerning statistics. According to the CDC, a staggering 62 million Americans lack access to vision care. Last fall, over 300,000 school children in California returned to the classroom with vision impairment. Compounding this, 1 in 4 preschool-aged children grappled with undiagnosed or untreated vision issues. Recognizing and addressing these concerns early on is pivotal to a child's overall well-being and future success. Timely detection and treatment of vision problems can be transformative, opening doors for children to excel in various profession such aa teachers, mechanics, truck drivers, nurses, doctors and even astronauts. Visit to the optometrist also helps in the timely diagnosis of various other health issues like glaucoma, eye infections, high blood pressure, etc. Ainak is committed to bridging this gap, providing free eye exams and eyeglasses to empower individuals and ensure that vision challenges do not hinder the pursuit of their dreams.

CACCC, incorporated and achieved 501c3 status in 2007, is the first coalition in the nation devoted to end-of-life care concerns in the Chinese community. An active working coalition of 250 local, state and national partner organizations and approximately 5,500 individual members dedicated to the mission. Nine (9) dedicated volunteer board of directors set policy with one (1) full time and two (2) part time staff. Prior to COVID, CACCC used facilities of its coalition partners for training and events. Today, events are still provided virtually, with planned collaborative opportunities for in person community engagement. CACCC’s focus: helping the Chinese community with advance care planning (ACP); mindful self-care; providing hospital patient ambassadors; hospice volunteer training; educating Chinese community, and the healthcare providers who serve them.

If we avoid facing the grief that can come with loss, grief can accumulate and eventually have detrimental impacts on an individual’s health and mental well-being. In a mindful approach to loss, we attempt to meet grief directly. That is, to be with the responses to loss, rather than push them away, pretend they are not there, or put them off for another day. CACCC has developed a four-module workshop: “Mindfully Facing Loss and Grief”. Each module is a 2-hour workshop. Each workshop includes: mindfulness practice, instructor presentation, breakout room instructor facilitated exercise. This workshop is open to all Mandarin- speaking adults who have completed the Mindful Self-Care Workshop (a free seven-week training provided by CACCC). New program/project/event With a generous community grant funding from the City of Cupertino in 2022/2023, CACCC developed a new much needed program: Mindfully Facing Loss and Grief to address life, death, grief and loss, mindfully, for the Chinese community, multigenerational Chinese families and family caregivers experiencing grief and loss during these challenging times. Additionally, CACCC’s intends to continue to build on the program successes of Starting the Conversation from previous funding years (2019/20, 2020/21 and 2022/23 with the Chinese community in Cupertino and surrounding areas by training the staff, case managers and trained volunteers of organizations in Cupertino and surrounding areas who serve the Chinese community. Mindfully Facing Loss and Grief Purpose: Encourage participants to face and address their loss and grief by providing mindful approaches to grief and loss, bereavement, mourning and a life memory book to foster positive mental and emotional health and well-being, overall. The City of Cupertino’s Community Grant Funding helped develop this new course conducted in Chinese (Mandarin): Mindfully Facing Grief and Loss to help a family loved one, family members, family caregivers and everyday people to be able to mindfully embrace life and death and mindfully facing grief and loss. Each module is a 2-hour workshop. The four modules developed included: Module 1: Loss and Grief: This module is primarily focused on an exercise that replicates the variety of loss experienced when confronted with chronic and terminal illness. Mindfulness helps us see again there’s nothing inherently wrong with grief. Grief is not a problem it’s a process to go through as it is life’s natural response to a loss that has meaning and significance. Module 2: Bereavement: Bereavement is the period after a loss during which grief and mourning occurs. The time spent in bereavement for the loss of a loved one depends on the circumstances of the loss and the level of attachment to the person who died or personal loss. Module 3: Mourning: Mourning is the outward expression of our grief; it is the expression of one’s grief. Mindful breathing, mindful walking and giving and receiving kindness can help us mourn. Mourning is greatly influenced by cultural beliefs, practices, and rituals. Between Modules 2 or 3, incorporate a Self-Care Stress Reduction exercise session for participants to reduce stress, to stimulate mind and body and emotional spirits to alleviate symptoms of grief and loss. Module 4: Life Memory Book: Create a template for people to use as a guide to review their lives, their memories, post their photos and write down the words they like to share with their families, loved ones and friends. Starting the Conversation Program Purpose: 1.Encourage participants to examine their overall health and well-being and adopt a healthier lifestyle. 2.Encourage advance care planning conversations regarding medical care wishes, as well as their loved one’s wishes who are living with chronic disease(s) and/or facing the end of life to consider available care options and discuss with family members, loved ones and the health professional team that will lead to completing an Advance Health Care Directive during a pandemic.

CACCC is uniquely qualified to address the advance care planning and end-of-life education needs of the Chinese community. There is no other organization in the nation whose mission is to build a community where Chinese Americans are able to face the end of life with dignity and respect. a)Embrace Diversity: CACCC’s community programs are designed to meet the needs of the large multigenerational Chinese American community in Cupertino and the surrounding areas. b)Support Education: The City of Cupertino has generously provided grant funding to preserve and support quality community education to improve programs that enhance learning and expand community-wide access, specific to the Chinese American community. c)Ensure a Responsive Government: Since 2019, the Parks and Recreation and the City Council leadership teams have been flexible and responsive to changing community needs and have recognized and supported CACCC, a local and regional organization to address the importance of advance care planning and discuss end-of-life care needs of the Chinese American community. As noted in item *8: With a generous community grant funding from the City of Cupertino in 2022/2023, CACCC developed a new much needed program: Mindfully Facing Loss and Grief to address life, death, grief and loss, mindfully, for the Chinese community, multigenerational Chinese families and family caregivers experiencing grief and loss during these challenging times.

I have always considered myself a lifelong learner, and have enjoyed many new classes, but never have I taken a class that is as transformative as this one. After the Week-2 class on mindfulness, I tried mindfulness while driving. The experience was so pleasant that I kicked my 40+year habit of driving with the radio on, just like that. The Week-4 self-compassion class led me to mindful eating: savoring every bite, appreciating the food, and stopping when full. I lost a few pounds in a month, without trying. I started listening, really listening, to my friends, and especially to my introverted daughter, who said to me, “Mom, I feel you are listening to me.” Her quiet comment shook me. For years, I have yearned to be able to communicate with my two grown daughters at a deeper level. I tried hard to be an active listener, and then inadvertently reverted to my old way of being an authoritative, all-knowing, problem- solving Chinese mother, and in so doing, closed the door to our communication. This course has shown me a different path. It sets itself apart from other mindfulness classes or books in my experience: in that it incorporates the Chinese culture, value and family structure in its content. The teachers’ stories resonate with my struggles as a Chinese American. It is indeed a rare gift. As a retired teacher from the California public schools, I couldn’t help but noticed how well these classes were conducted. Each class started with a short meditation to quiet our mind and collect our focus, followed by an informative lecture on a specific topic. All the teachers are full of wisdom and compassion. Such beautiful people! The small group discussions, often to share our weekly homework, took me out of my comfort zone. But it was precisely what I needed to go from a passive listener to an active participant. The teachers demonstrated mindful listening by their actions, creating a safe haven for the students to share our stories, doubts and questions. I feel such tender camaraderie towards my classmates because of our shared experience. The weekly assignments were not easy, but thought- provoking. They forced us to delve into our deep self, then apply the new knowledge in our daily life. So impactful. As the course drew to a close, I was eager to continue these practices, but apprehensive about my ability to navigate in uncharted waters. Imagine my relief to learn about the after-class support group, which I am grabbing onto as a lifesaver. Now I am confident that I can do it. The world would be a much better place if we all learned mindfulness and compassion. My heartfelt appreciation to CACCC for this life-changing course, as well as all the classes and services it offers: a great contribution to the Chinese American community.

We are a non-profit, all volunteer-run organization and take pride in serving our community, including special needs kids. Cupertino Little League (CLL) was founded in 2016 following the merger of Cupertino National (founded in 1962) and Tri-Cities (1964) Little Leagues.Children play baseball during practices, games, and tournaments held primarily at Wilson Park. Cupertino Little League runs the Wilson Park Snack Shack, a beloved point of gathering for all CLL families and beyond. CLL also enables boys and girls with physical and mental challenges to enjoy the game of baseball with the CLL Challenger team. Other CLL teams support the Challenger team through a “buddy” system. We are planning for the works to be executed in the Summer of 2024 timeframe, during the offseason. $46,000 $20,000 43 71 8 Replacement of two scoreboards at Wilson Park 82 PRC 04-04-2024 81 of 196 __________ _________ ____________ __________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________________________: ____________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ _______ 9.Please provide a line item breakdown of how the funds will be used in the categories below.

If targeted, describe your target audience. The funds will be used to purchase 2 new scoreboards for the City of Cupertino, which will be used at Wilson Park primarily by Cupertino Little League, but also potentially by any organization renting the fields from the City of Cupertino (such as commercial baseball camps). The scoreboards will be mounted in collaboration with Cupertino City staff, with whom we are in close contact already. The operation of the current scoreboard has become less and less safe for our volunteers. These are old (at least 15 years old) and have malfunctioned several times through the seasons which required intervention of City staff: one such malfunction related to the wired and powered scoring box resulted in a shock hazard to our kids and parents. A new scoreboard with wireless updating capabilities would resolve these types of issues. As described in the General Plan Principles, “the City has an excellent system of community and neighborhood parks that provide a place for community gathering, recreation and healthy programs.”. Cupertino Little League is a sports organization and provides to 135 kids the opportunity to practice a physical activity for a modest registration fee. We want Wilson Park with these new scoreboards to reflect the excellent infrastructure the City provides to its residents and to the Cupertino Little League community. “The City will rely heavily on partnerships and collaboration with other service providers in sharing facilities and services, and ensuring that City plans meet the community's current and future needs. This will allow the City to deliver services in a manner that is efficient and fiscally responsible.” Cupertino Little League is willing to fund a significant share of the project, which eventually benefits directly the City of Cupertino, as the owner of the fields. CLL does not foresee any additional capital costs after the scoreboards are taken into service. Moreover, the new scoreboards will be less prone to malfunction, thus freeing time for City Park staff to focus on more important matters. To be eligible to play with Cupertino Little League, a player’s parent(s) must live within Cupertino Little League boundaries (which cover most of the City of Cupertino) or attend a school located in Cupertino. For the Spring season 2024, out of the 130 players (aged 5-16 years old) who registered with CLL, 115 are Cupertino residents (100 families). We expect this ratio of resident/non-resident players to stay constant in the future. These scoreboards can also be used by any organization renting the fields with the City of Cupertino. Over the course of Spring season 2023, CLL organized more than 125 baseball games at Wilson Park: these were attended by a total of around 2,600 players and families (including 400 from Cupertino, as well as others from Santa Clara, Sunnyvale and Los Altos Little Leagues). The presence of these boards will reflect positively on the City of Cupertino for all these visitors. While CLL is the main organization to use the fields at Wilson Park (and hence these boards), they are available to rent by any organization. 0 20,000 0 0 0 0 1350 400 83 PRC 04-04-2024 82 of 196 d)Will there be a charge or fee for the program/project/event (if applicable)?

If yes, please describe when, how much was received, and how the funds were used. No further capital expenses will be required for this project, there will be no fee for the use of the boards, besides the regular fees the city charges CLL for the use of the fields. CLL has, to the best of our knowledge, never received a grant funding from the City of Cupertino. Cupertino Little League’s board has already approved the funding of this project from its capital reserves that it had managed to accumulate in previous years. However this project will deplete that capital savings. Given the fees for renting fields have increased significantly during the past years, the league is not able to put as much into reserves as previously. Receiving a grant from the City would alleviate the financial pressure on our non-profit organization and not require us to put this back on the community families participating. If $20,000 is not an option in 2024, we would like to see that sum divided: $11,500 in 2024 and $11,500 in 2025 for this project (50% of total project costs). As we expect the boards to be installed for the opening of the Spring season 2025, we will have an inauguration ceremony as part of our traditional opening day in March 2025 and we will invite the City Council, the Parks & Recs commission, as well as City Staff. We expect 300 people to be present at that ceremony. 84 PRC 04-04-2024 83 of 196 17. Describe any funding requested from other agencies/organizations in regard to this program/project/event request.

If targeted, describe your target audience. The funds will be allocated strategically across various key areas to enhance both the effectiveness of our current speech members as well as increasing opportunities for potential members. These include: 1. Tournament Fees Coverage: A portion of the funds will be dedicated to covering tournament costs for competitions that we were unable to attend previously such as prestigious and expensive travel tournaments such as the tournament of champions and glenbrooks. This initiative aims to provide more opportunities for our members to compete and qualify for national tournaments. 2. Enhanced Coaching Infrastructure: Another segment of the funds will be directed towards expanding our pool of coaches, specifically dedicated to each speech event. This expansion will enable us to offer more frequent workshops and personalized feedback sessions to nurture the skills of every student participant. 3. Boosters Program Expansion: Funds will also be allocated to bolster our boosters program. This expansion will facilitate smooth operations for our speech program without encountering any financial constraints and ensure a proper management of the funds 4. Summer Camp Enrichment: Most significantly, a substantial portion of the funds will be invested in expanding our summer camp program. This expansion will extend the duration of the camp, providing students with an extended period of access to high-quality coaching and training. Importantly, the camp will be offered at no cost to participants, thereby removing financial barriers and fostering inclusivity. MV Speech Boosters extends the mission of our city by providing support and opportunities for our student community to take responsibility and leadership roles as well as sharpen their public speaking and communication/collaboration skills. Our successful feeder middle school program provides leadership and mentor-ship roles for our speech members. Our success in tournaments proves the effectiveness of our coaches. The Monta Vista Speech team is ranked 6th in California and 45th nationwide. Our grant will primarily serve two target audiences. Firstly, our primary focus is on engaging middle schoolers from Kennedy Middle School and high schoolers from Monta Vista High School. These students represent the core demographic that MVSD seeks to support and empower through our speech services. Additionally, we are allocating significant resources to extend our reach to a broader audience within Cupertino high schools. This secondary target market encompasses all high school students in Cupertino, with a particular emphasis on those who may face financial barriers and who demonstrate exceptional dedication to improving their speaking skills. By prioritizing both established participants from Kennedy and Monta Vista and extending our services to encompass a wider spectrum of Cupertino high school students through free summer programs, MVSD aims to create a more inclusive and accessible platform for speech education and development within our community. While in the school year, the MVSD program is only available for Monta Vista high school students and the Kennedy program is only available to Kennedy middle school students, our additional programs reach out to the rest of the community with limited eligibility criteria. Through our annual MVSD summer program, anyone can receive public speaking lessons and professional experience free- of-charge, although the program is recommended and tailored to current or rising high schoolers. 4000 3000 0 0 0 0 2630 7232 120 PRC 04-04-2024 119 of 196 d)Will there be a charge or fee for the program/project/event (if applicable)?

If partial funding is awarded, what is the minimum funding amount needed for your program/ project/event to take place? 15. Have you received grant funding from the City of Cupertino in the past? If yes, please describe when, how much was received, and how the funds were used. All of MVSD’s programs are free of charge, although donations are encouraged for the high school and middle school programs to keep the clubs running. Because MVSD attends various tournaments and holds weekly classes/events, funding is necessary to ensure long-term success and growth. On the other hand, the MVSD Speech Program is completely free of charge without any donations as our strong budgeting and finances, directed by our booster board, allow us to hold an annual free speech program over the Summer to contribute to our community. 2021 - we received $3000.00 We spent it on hiring a coach to strengthen the Original Oratory branch of our speech team. This served about 24% of our team members. We submitted the report as required in July 2022. If the full requested funding is not awarded, the main funding allocation will be for the expansion and enrichment of our summer camp program, as it is the largest priority. This is because of Monta Vista’s newfound commitment to expand public speaking opportunities to individuals who are unable to spend large amounts of money. MVSD’s main mode of promotion and advertisement is through the Monta Vista Speech Instagram. Whether it be announcing new apparel, upcoming tournaments, or posting vlogs of our team, the MVSD Instagram has gained a following for personal, well-designed posts showcasing one of the biggest clubs at Monta Vista. While Instagram effectively reaches MVSD’s younger audience, communication to the whole family is made through the Monta Vista Speech email. Through weekly emails, tournaments and major events are announced to foster an educated and connected community. The email also showcases a monthly newsletter, where speech families can catch up on all the events of the month and learn more about tournament winners, meeting activities, etc. 121 PRC 04-04-2024 120 of 196 17.

If targeted, describe your target audience. Many low-income seniors have cognition and mobility limits. In addition, their limited means and physical abilities keep them from having access to healthy recreation activities/ resources, and access to beautiful nature. Many of them feel lonely, isolated, and anxious after three years of global pandemic. Between 25-30% seniors have reported these mental health disorders since April 2020 (source: CDC). It can be as high as 60% among the low-income senior group. Memory problems, cognitive decline and a growing loneliness epidemic, all make seniors especially vulnerable to mental health issues. Our proposed program and activities are tailored to their needs, adeptive to their physical conditions, and appropriate for their cultural background. For instance, we have organized outing to the bay wetlands which are beyond their normal daily reach. We have selected recreation areas with paved roads / trails accessible to handicapped seniors. We have hosted health fair booths to provide information and resources of mental health. We organized senior talent shows which received tremendous positive feedback from seniors as they enhanced their confidence, and showcased their talents. We are also organizing group tour, such as a complimentary culture tour of Hakone Japanese Garden where we’ll introduce Japanese culture, guide the tour the garden, provide kimono photography opportunities, and offer Japanese souvenirs. Our program is well aligned to Cupertino’s general plan principles to improve the sense of connection between neighborhoods and make it a better place for all residents. Our program focuses on one of the most vulnerable groups of people to broaden their daily reach boundaries, to take them to enjoy California natural recreation assets to improve their mental health. It improves the community equity and quality. We have strong abilities to organize programs to serve the community because we are deeply rooted in the communities to have good understanding of the needs of the community, engage community members to co-lead projects, co-develop plans and implement programs tailored to meet the community needs effectively. We have a solid track record to serve low-income seniors and received very positive community feedback. For instance, we organized senior talent shows, social gatherings and culture tour for low-income seniors for the past several years. The feedback from the participants was very positive and our partners gave us high regards. Our program is free and serves low income seniors in Cupertino. Most of the audience we serve are people of color who may have limited English language skills. Our program will serve 60 low income seniors in Cupertino. 0 $ 1000 $ 400 $ 800 culture guide, art instruction, health counseling1800 0 60 60 128 PRC 04-04-2024 127 of 196 d)Will there be a charge or fee for the program/project/event (if applicable)?

If yes, please describe when, how much was received, and how the funds were used. Our program is complimentary for the low-income seniors. We received $2000 from the City of Cupertino to support children’s art education program in 2022, and $4000 to support seniors’ wellbeing in 2023. We spent all of the grants to serve the community and the target audience and received tremendous positive feedback from the audience we served. In 2022, we organized a children's art contest, held children’s art exhibition and multi- generation art receptionist at Cupertino Library and Cupertino Senior Center. More than 100 Cupertino children and residents participated in our activities. In 2023, we organized outing to the bay wetlands, hosted health fair booths to provide information and resources of mental health, seniors talent shows, movie nights, art and hand craft workshops to serve Cupertino seniors. We are also organizing complimentary culture tour of Hakone Japanese Garden in March where we’ll introduce Japanese culture, guide the tour the garden, provide kimono photography opportunities, and offer Japanese souvenirs. In total, we have and will serve more than 100 seniors in Cupertino. All comments we received are very positive. Many seniors asked us to continue the program. Without the funding from Cupertino, our ability to support the program will be severely decreased. We will self fund the program via our individual donations, but it is smaller size of funding, which may lead to dramatic reduction of most programs and possibly shutdown of the program, which will be a loss for the seniors in Cupertino. Over the past two years, we have established communication channels with the senior community in Cupertino - we can send the information directly to seniors via senior living community, senior center, WVCS and adult day care centers. In addition, we posted our program flyers at Cupertino library, community centers and at our facebook page to expand the awareness to more people. 129 PRC 04-04-2024 128 of 196 17.

Our programs are free for participants and strive to challenge stigma, drive inclusivity, and create opportunities for everyone to shine. Our four pillars of service represent our core programs and demonstrate how we support athletes in all aspects of their lives. Special Olympics Northern California empowers athletes through sports, health initiatives, school partnerships, and leadership opportunities: • Sports are at the core of our mission and help to create wins for athletes and communities. Programs begin for children as young as two and expand into year-round training and competition opportunities for athletes 8-80+ years old. Individuals with intellectual disabilities are supported by coaches, unified partners, and volunteers to compete, connect, and stay active. • Health Initiatives help our athletes to be their best on and off the field. Our health initiatives include our Healthy Athletes Health Fairs, Inclusive Fitness Programs, and Athlete Health Messengers. Healthy Athletes partners with local healthcare professionals and students to offer free non- invasive screenings in eight disciplines, including podiatry, physical therapy, hearing, nutrition, physical exams, vision, dental, and mental wellness. Inclusive fitness programs offer walking clubs, fitness seasons, performance stations, and a fitness library that all athletes can access for guided fitness content. Health Messengers are trained to encourage healthy behaviors for their fellow athletes and advocate for inclusive healthcare outside of the organization. • School Partnerships enhance our impact by bringing Special Olympics to school campuses throughout Northern California. Our Unified Sports Program and Unified Champion Schools help ignite friendship and belonging between students with and without disabilities. Our programs span Pre-K to Transition Schools and include sports curriculum, youth leadership, and resources for educators. Students receiving special education services are joined by their general education peers in Unified Sports activities. Additionally, Special Olympics Northern California introduces Pre-K age students with perceived intellectual disabilities, as well as their peers, to programming through the Special Olympics Young Athletes Program. • Leadership Opportunities put Special Olympics athletes at the forefront of change, acting as the face and voice of everything we do. Our innovative Athlete Leadership Program empowers athletes to become advocates for themselves and others with disabilities through skills-based classes, presentation opportunities, and chances to take on leadership roles. Leadership opportunities better equip athlete leaders for success at school, work, and in the community. Athletes learn about public speaking, speech writing, and a variety of professional development skills that help then take on influential roles within the community and excel in their everyday lives.

The majority of the fund will be used to pay facility rental. Additional expenses include materials such as building event materials, handouts, small prizes, snacks, and drinks for the volunteers. The topics of the workshops will cover physics, chemistry, biology, math, computer science, earth science, and engineering. In addition, the depth of knowledge the workshops cover will vary depending on the topics so that both beginner and advanced students can find subjects that interest them. For example, while Fundamentals of Physics will explore kinematics in 1 and 2 dimensions, along with force and other common topics, Rotation and Stellar Collapse will focus on the investigation of stellar collapse using the principles of rotational physics. As described above, each workshop will span 1-4 weeks with one or multiple 60-90 minute sessions, and the syllabus and instructor’s background will be provided before registration to help students select the right workshop that fits their interests. Our proposed program aligns with the City's mission and values perfectly, which is to provide exceptional service, encourage all members of the community to take responsibility for one another, and support the values of education, innovation, and collaboration. Additionally, our workshops are open to all Cupertino residents no matter their income level. As a result, this will also help low-income students gain STEM learning and education to reduce the gap between them and their more affluent peers. Our program not only enhances the exposure of elementary school students to STEM but also helps them build a unique interest in STEM-related topics. In addition, by offering these workshops in the summer, we can effectively prevent summer learning loss. The new skills and knowledge acquired will reinforce the confidence of the students and help them thrive in the coming school year. We will serve all citywide schools, all Cupertino residents who are of grades 2nd-5th.

If targeted, describe your target audience. The December holidays are challenging for many people, as the stress of shopping, cooking, and family get-togethers make for a busy and often draining six weeks. For families living in poverty, however, the holiday season is particularly stressful. Homeless and low-income families cannot a?ord to purchase gifts - even necessary items such as seasonally appropriate clothing - and often cannot take the time or pay the travel costs to celebrate the holidays with family. This is particularly di?cult for children, who do not understand why they cannot celebrate seasonal holidays like their friends and neighbors do. For the last two years, increased cost of living, rent increases, income levels stagnant, and job losses have impacted the low-income and minority communities and added another layer of intense stress and anxiety on households already struggling to survive. As a result, the holiday season adds even more stress to the lives of homeless and low-income families. Researchers have found that the stress associated with living in poverty affects all members of a household, and extreme levels of stress can have long-term negative impacts on young people growing up in low-income households. According to the American Psychological Association, poverty-induced stress can cause permanent changes to developing brains that negatively impact "children's working memory, problem-solving, and other executive function skills." (Farah) The Gift of Hope program provides gifts and food to homeless and low-income families in our service area during the December holiday season. Gifts include traditional items, such as toys and small household appliances, and seasonally appropriate clothing items that families cannot afford, such as jackets, gloves, hats, warm socks, and blankets. In addition to providing much-needed items to families struggling financially, it relieves the stress caused by the pressure to engage in holiday spending that low-income families cannot afford. The Gift of Hope program also allows families living in poverty in Cupertino to preserve household assets that would have been spent on holiday gifts so that they can be spent on critical household needs such as rent, utilities, and food. In summary, the vision of the general plan emphasizes creating a balanced and vibrant community that is inclusive, safe, and healthy. WVCS and our programs ensure we are helping build an inclusive community for all ages, income groups, and minorities. This program will serve low-income households whose annual income is at or below 275% of federal poverty. For an individual, that is an annual household income of $40,095; for a family of four or less, that is an annual household income of $82,500 or less. The program is available to the entire community if they meet the income eligibility criteria. 0 0 0 0 0 Direct Program Cost 10000 350 100 171 PRC 04-04-2024 170 of 196 d)Will there be a charge or fee for the program/project/event (if applicable)?

Fleeing domestic violence, she lived in her car with her two youngest children. With limited resources, she could not find a safe place for her family until the Tenent-Based Rental Assistance program could assist her in moving into her new apartment. She is currently attending nursing school while also caring for her children. Her children enjoy having the freedom to walk to school, and the eldest enjoys taking on the significant brother role. WVCS was also able to assist her with signing up for the upcoming Thanksgiving meal and Gift of Hope for her family. 175 PRC 04-04-2024 174 of 196 176 PRC 04-04-2024 175 of 196 1/28/24, 9:28 PM Amazon.com - Order 113-6979696-3929011 https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/summary/print.html/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_invoice_o00?ie=UTF8&orderID=113-6979696-3929011 1/13 Final Details for Order #113-6979696-3929011 Print this page for your records.
