Is the person in <br />charge of this <br />program or project <br />different from the <br />Authorizing Official? <br />No <br />W hat are you <br />requesting funding <br />for? <br />Operational expense (arts organizations ONLY) <br />Request Summary CHW T has been operating out of our current woodturning studio location <br />for the past 7 years at a current monthly rent of $850/month. W e have just <br />recently been able to renegotiate the rent to remain at $850/month for a 12 <br />month term beginning 7/1/24, after which the rent will probably increase <br />substantially. The landlord kept the rent the same after many members <br />individually helped him with regards to improvements at the property. <br />Organization leadership is actively searching for a new location that will <br />allow us a larger shop to better accommodate members and students, <br />however the current situation with the real estate market is making any <br />move considerably more expensive. <br />Request is for $5,000 <br />Organizational Goals Grant funds will allow CHW T to maintain our current fee of $25 for student <br />turning at our open turning sessions that are held on Fridays <br />and Saturdays as well as maintaining the current $130/session fee for our <br />monthly specialty workshops. Preserving working capital will <br />allow CHW T to better prepare for the inevitable move to a new location, <br />through which we can continue our community outreach projects including <br />instructing students and contributions of turned items to the community. <br />How will you <br />evaluate whether or <br />not your goals have <br />been met? <br />Continued and increasing attendance of the open turning and workshop <br />sessions without having to reduce working capital. <br />Docusign Envelope ID: D2DDD443-AAE4-42FB-A56E-C407DEC271B8
