BACKGROUND
The City of Chino is fortunate to have multiple non-profits and community groups dedicated to serving the public and preserving Chino’s unique history. To assist in their ongoing efforts, the City Council from time to time authorizes expenditures from the City’s community support fund. These expenditures serve a valid public purpose by helping to continue the outstanding services that these organizations provide to our community.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
To continue this tradition, Council Member Flores recommends that the City Council approve the following contribution:
• Adrian’s World ($500): Adrian’s World is a family orientated non-profit organization serving the special needs community in San Bernardino County with a mission to provide quality care and service because it’s what they deserve.
• Behavior Highway ($500): Behavior Highway is an organization that strives to make Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) understandable and accessible for everyone by providing direct services and parent and professional resources. Behavior Highway aims at providing inclusion, acceptance, and an individualized approach to learn and grow.
• Autism Society Inland Empire ($500): Autism Society Inland Empire is an organization that connects people to the resources they need through education, advocacy, support, information and referral, and community programming.
• Food for Life Ministry - Seventh Annual Golf Tournament Fundraiser ($500): Food for Life Ministry provides food and resources to families in need of support. Through their Annual Gold Tournament, Food for Life Ministry raises funds to further their mission.
By approving this contribution, Adrian’s World, Behavior Highway, Autism Society Inland Empire, and Food for Life Ministry will be better equipped to provide services to the Chino community. Therefore, as proposed by Council Member Flores, staff recommends that the City Council approve the community support contribution to Adrian’s World, Behavior Highway, Autism Society Inland Empire, and Food for Life Ministry.
