Sister Carmen <br />COMMUNITY CENTER <br />Helping people in need and promoting self-sufficiency for over 30 years. <br />Finance Committee <br />City of Louisville <br />749 Main Street <br />Louisville, CO 80027 <br />December 11, 2017 <br />Dear Finance Committee: <br />Graham Clark asked that I write a letter to give you an update on the water bill assistance <br />funding you have generously provided to Sister Carmen Community Center. As you <br />know, this money helps residents of Louisville who either anticipate not being able to pay <br />their bill or are already behind in payment. Since early 2016, you have provided us with a <br />total of $10,000 ($5000 in January of 2016 and $5000 in late February 2017). <br />The water bill assistance program has provided assistance to 22 households so far. By the <br />end of December, we anticipate having spent close to $7000 of the $10,000. (We <br />anticipate complete spend out of the funding by the end of March or mid-April 2018.) <br />This essential financial assistance not only keeps the water turned on, it also helps <br />prevent families from becoming homeless as having a utility shut off can be a precursor <br />to eviction. <br />We greatly appreciate the partnership of the City of Louisville as we work towards <br />stabilizing the most vulnerable in our community. Please let me know if you have <br />questions or if I can provide additional information. <br />Sincerely, <br />&zwe C,aw�orci <br />Suzanne Crawford <br />CEO <br />655 Aspen Ridge Drive • Lafayette, CO 80026 <br />303.665.4342 • www.sistercarmen.org <br />9 <br />
