Please provide a brief description <br />of your organization’s past <br />achievements in carrying out <br />similar projects and evidence of <br />successful record of meeting <br />proposed budgets and <br />timetables (2-4 sentences): <br />In 2020-2021, Habitat successfully used funds from the Climate <br />Action Fund to incorporate more weatherization projects into its <br />Home Preservation program. Through these efforts, Habitat <br />leveraged over $50,000 in Climate Action Funds to replace or <br />repair 4 HVAC systems, add insulation to attics and crawl spaces, <br />and replace windows. This was in addition to the critical repairs <br />that Habitat went into the house to address, which include things <br />like failing roofs or repairs to structural framing. In years without <br />this special funding available, Habitat would have been unable to <br />complete these weatherization projects due to budget limitations <br />on the amount of funds that can be allocated per house. <br />4.
