Box 161 <br /> Carrboro, NC 27514 <br /> 1 <br /> Dear Commissioners: <br /> I give my enthusiastic support to Orange County's effort to secure <br /> funding for more low-cost housing through Habitat for Humanity. By <br /> 11 utilizing the volunteers of Habitat the Demonstration Project Grant <br /> multiplies its effectiveness. <br /> Our congregation, United Church of Chapel Hill , has a member on the <br /> Habitat for Humanity Board of Directors, made a gift a year ago of <br /> $2500, and has had various people involved as contributors and workers. <br /> I think the future will find this congregation and other local <br /> congregations more involved. <br /> As President of the Inter-Faith Council I can say that the IFC does <br /> not meet without lamenting over the lack of affordable housing. The <br /> demand on our emergency assistance funds for housing has grown to <br /> menacing proportions. Any effort to provide more low-cost housing <br /> should be supported. <br /> Thank you for your assistance. <br /> ' Sincerely, <br /> I <br /> Richard Edens <br /> II . <br /> I <br /> I . <br />
