4 <br />students at each. <br />We can be awarded as much as $100,000 for each of five years to accomplish our work (which <br />includes our efforts in Chatham County). We are required to secure adollar-for-dollar match in <br />either in-kind services and/or cash. <br />We understand from you that Orange County has decided not to offer financial support for our <br />application. We are disappointed by this. Nevertheless, we ask Orange County to consider writing a <br />letter of support for our efforts. Attached is a sample letter you may choose to work from. Should <br />the County agree to offer this letter of support, please submit it to me on County letterhead. <br />The application deadline for the grant is March 11, 2005. We hope that Orange County can support <br />The Community Backyard's application for this federal grant in the manner outlined here. Please do <br />not hesitate to call upon me if you need any additional information. <br />Thanks so much again, <br />Sincerely, <br />Isabel Geffner <br />Executive Director <br />Enc. <br />
