Community Grant Application
Organization
1. Describe the history of the organization, including the year the organization was established.
Since 1985, NeighborImpact has served Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties in Central Oregon.
Our organization is considered the largest nonprofit in our region on a client -served basis, serving
55,000 residents annually. NeighborImpact programs support people in our community who need it
the most as well people who need a temporary boost. In fact, our programs benefit 1 in 4 residents of
Central Oregon and we are the region's leading provider of food, housing services, energy assistance,
and early childhood education services.
2. State the organization's mission, goals, and programs or services provided.
"Supporting people, strengthening communities" is not only the mission of NeighborImpact, it is at
the heart of every decision we make. Our purpose is to empower individuals and families to succeed
and help people make better choices for a brighter future.
NeighborImpact works to develop solutions and bring resources to Central Oregon to address the
issues surrounding poverty. We offer a diverse array of services that meet basic human needs
including hunger, education, emergency shelter, and stable housing. Our organization serves families
and individuals who are unemployed, low-income, and/or in poverty.
Each year our Food Bank distributes 2.6 million pounds of food and we provide energy assistance to
over 6,500 households. Our Transitional Housing Program helps families move to permanent housing
and we help children in poverty enter school ready to learn through our Head Start Program. Our
Matched -Savings Program helps residents save for education, homeownership and to start small
businesses while our HomeSource Program helps residents become successful homeowners and
conserve financial resources through homebuyer -education, energy -education, financial management,
mortgage payment assistance and foreclosure prevention counseling.
3. Describe the leadership and structure of the organization.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, NeighborImpact employs roughly 200 staff and maintains 15
offices and classrooms in La Pine, Bend, Redmond, Sisters, Prineville and Madras in Central Oregon.
We are the lead agency for homeless services, childcare resources, emergency food programs, home
ownership, Head Start, and self-help programs for the working poor. For over 25 years, we have
focused on building successful families through basic needs, affordable housing, home ownership
and trainings to increase life skills, work skills and financial literacy.
In addition to the leadership provided by our Executive Director, Scott Cooper, our organization is
governed by a 15 -member board of directors representing all three counties and multiple sectors of
the community such as government, education, business, and health and human services. As per our
bylaws, one-third of our board represents the economically disadvantaged from Crook, Deschutes,
and Jefferson Counties.
Program, Project, or Activity
1. Provide a title of the proposed initiative for which funds are being requested.
HomeSource of NeighborImpact — Homebuyer Education, Counseling, and Home Rehabilitation
2. Describe the goals and objectives of the proposed initiative.
The primary goal of our HomeSource program is to offer a variety of classes, programs and services
to help underserved Deschutes County residents strengthen their household finances, build financial
assets, and acquire, maintain and sustain homeownership. We provide services that are responsive to
community needs and enable residents to create tangible assets and build their own financial
foundation. Increasing access to quality buyer education, increasing the number of households that
participate in homebuyer education classes, and increasing housing affordability and stability for low
income households are just a few of the results we will achieve towards our primary goal.
Another goal of HomeSource of Neighborlmpact is to provide a continuum of care to help
underserved populations move out of homelessness and become financially stable and secure. Clients
who are served by Neighborlmpact's Emergency Services Programs (shelter, rent assistance, energy
assistance) are directed to HomeSource for financial literacy training and credit and budget
counseling. These services help individuals build their knowledge and skills to prevent homelessness
and the need for further emergency services. Preventing vulnerable individuals from making
uninformed home purchases, falling victim to predatory loans, and depending too heavily on credit
are also objectives we will achieve through this project.
Lastly, for this project, HomeSource of Neighborlmpact aims to assist Deschutes County residents
purchase, maintain, and sustain successful homeownership. We help homeowners resolve mortgage
delinquency, avoid foreclosure and address health and safety problems in their home.
3. Identify the target population which will be served.
HomeSource of Neighborlmpact is committed to serving low-income individuals and families and
those living at or below the poverty line. Our Weatherization Program has an income cap of 60%
state median income, and our Housing Rehabilitation and Individual Development Account programs
have an income cap of 80% AMI (area median income). Our programs reach those living in rural
areas of Deschutes County as well as within underserved urban areas. Of the clients served in Fiscal
Year 2013-14, 10% were Hispanic/Latino, 8% were disabled, and 5% were veterans.
4. Identify the geographic area(s) of Deschutes County which will benefit.
While services will be available to all County residents, we plan to target Redmond and rural areas of
Deschutes County including La Pine.
5. Describe how the proposed initiative will positively impact the community and
complement existing services currently provided by Deschutes County.
The HomeSource foreclosure mitigation program both preserves affordable housing for homeowners
as well as prevents homelessness for those same owners who may not have another housing option if
they lose their home. Our comprehensive program helps Deschutes County residents apply for and
secure loan modifications that bring down their housing payments to affordable levels. When we are
unable to help families secure a loan modification, we work with clients on other options including
exiting with dignity or referring them to other programs within our agency or other partner agencies.
Our knowledgeable coaches help struggling homeowners access services to try to prevent home
foreclosure. Our home rehabilitation program provides funds to help low income homeowners make
critical health and safety repairs to their homes. Additionally, our financial fitness programs help
position clients to build wealth over the long term to better avoid poverty and weather economic
changes.
6. Describe in detail how the proposed initiative will be implemented.
In order to promote our classes, workshops, and counseling programs, we advertise in most of the
free calendar listings locally (The Bend Bulletin, Nugget, etc.) and purchase print advertising in a
variety of sources: Central Oregonian, Roundup(s), Spokesman, Bulletin, Source Weekly, etc.
Additionally, we have advertised in the Central Oregon Real Estate Book & Rental Guide and on
their website. We also advertise through HomeSmart Oregon, our state wide collaborative formed to
promote online home buyer education throughout the state.
In order to reach those in Deschutes County who need HomeSource services, NeighborImpact
Counselors have specific monthly outreach goals. We also have a department annual target for
attending meetings and events, broken down by geographic area. We are pleased to share that we met
our 2013-2014 goal of 400 events. We attend chamber events, target the largest area employers, and
ask to attend staff meetings. We visit realty and title offices, senior centers, anyone who might have
an interest in what we do. Outreach is a crucial component of our HomeSource Program.
Homebuyer Education classes are taught by NeighborImpact staff and volunteers in our offices in
Bend, LaPine, Redmond, and other rural areas of Deschutes County. We meet regularly with our
community partners who help us revise and update curriculum and teach specialized portions of the
classes (taxes, insurance, etc.). Typically these partners volunteer their time and include lenders,
realtors, and other finance industry professionals.
With three regional offices in Deschutes County (Redmond, Bend, and La Pine) we are poised to
implement this project as soon as funding is secured. We have tentative workshop dates scheduled
throughout Deschutes County in 2015 covering financial fitness and home buyer education. With
additional funding we will be able to focus staff on the areas of greatest need immediately.
7. Describe specifically how the requested funds will be used.
HomeSource of NeighborImpact requests $11,000 to support our educational and coaching programs
and services for Deschutes County residents. Residents will have access to all our coaching and
educational services including home buyer pre -purchase counseling and education; foreclosure
counseling and education; reverse mortgage counseling; post purchase education for homeowners;
financial education; home rehabilitation loans; budget and credit counseling; savings programs (IDAs)
and related coaching/mentoring; energy conservation education; weatherization grants; and referrals to
emergency services to prevent homelessness. HomeSource of NeighborImpact employs 4.5 FTE to
provide services to Deschutes County residents. This funding represents a portion of the overall cost
to provide these services to the low and moderate income households in the communities across
Deschutes County.
8. Identify any partner agencies which will collaborate to implement the proposed initiative.
We work very closely with partner agencies to ensure clients are adequately served without a
duplication of effort. Some of our partner agencies include Housing Works, Central Oregon Veterans
Outreach, and Central Oregon Association of Realtors. Our largest referral sources include other
NeighborImpact programs such as Head Start and Transitional Housing as well as external referral
sources Housing Works and realtors and lenders.
9. Describe other sources of funding that will support the proposed initiative.
HomeSource will use the funding from the Deschutes County Community Grant to help leverage
additional resources from the State of Oregon, NeighborWorks America, and private foundations to
cover the full cost of operating these programs. HomeSource of Neighborlmpact is open five days a
week for business. Most of our services are free to all community members, with the exception of the
home buyer education workshop which requires a reasonable registration fee for the eight hour class.
Performance Measurement
1. Identify quantifiable outputs anticipated to be achieved through the proposed initiative
(examples: number of persons served, programs or events held, animals rescued, acres
restored or protected).

• Provide 4 Rehabilitation loans to low income homeowners who have a health or safety
issue with their primary residence
2. Describe the anticipated outcomes of the proposed initiative (examples: fewer persons
institutionalized, greater knowledge and understanding of local history, fewer animals in
shelter care, more natural areas available for wildlife and recreation).
In 2015, the HomeSource program will:
• Increase housing affordability and stability for low income households through home
rehabilitation and weatherization
• Increase the number of households that access Homebuyer Education prior to shopping for a
home

• Increase the number of households correcting or building credit to achieve financial goals
• Reduce household energy burden and carbon emissions through rehabilitation, weatherization
and education

Organization
1. Describe the history of the organization, including the year the organization was established.
Grandma's House of Central Oregon is a 501 (c) (3) organization which was founded
in 1992 with contributions from businesses, community members, churches, service clubs
and foundations. Grandma's House is an educational, welfare, non-profit, residential home
and outreach center for homeless and/or abused pregnant teens between the ages of 12
and 19 years old and their babies. Some of the teens who come to Grandma's house
choose to parent their babies and some choose adoption. We operate non-stop 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. The components of the programs we offer are
described below.
Whether choosing adoption or parenting, Grandma's House offers hope, support and
tools to young parents to make good life decisions for themselves and their babies. The
support of this grant funding will assist Grandma's House in continuing to provide a safe,
nurturing shelter in a stable, supportive environment with access to comprehensive maternal
and infant healthcare programs, counseling, education, emotional and psychological support
and early intervention. We provide workshops and support in life -skills, substance abuse
counseling, crisis intervention, pre & post -natal care, breastfeeding, nutrition, parenting skills
and child abuse prevention.
2. State the organization's mission, goals, and programs or services provided.
The mission/goal of Grandma's House is to help each young woman become self-
sufficient and able to make responsible decisions for herself and her child. This, in turn,
enables her to move on into independent living as a productive and confident community
member. The specific services provided are described within this document.
3. Describe the leadership and structure of the organization.
Grandma's House Executive Director, Woody Medeiros, has been in major leadership roles with Grandma's
House for over 21 years (first 3 years as the Resident Coordinator then last 18 years as the Executive Director). With
oversight by a volunteer Board of Directors Woody leads a dedicated staff including a Resident Case Manager, Elsa
Milne (1.0 FTE —1 year), Program Assistant / Volunteer Coordinator, Linda Collins (1.0 FTE — 7 years, started
volunteering over 20 years ago), Night Supervisor, Sharon Petrie (.20 FTE — 3 months). Grandma's House also
relies heavily upon its volunteer base including over 800 hours annually from 30 House Moms who help ensure 24
hour supervision of the residents and facility.
1
Grandma's House has a stong Board of Directors who are committed to the organization and provide
leadership in planning, fundraising and other aspects of our operations.
Program, Project, or Activity
1. Provide a title of the proposed initiative for which funds are being requested.
Grandma's House respectfully submits this application for funding to the Deschutes County Community Grants
Program in the amount of $11,000. We seek funding to provide for program support giving shelter and outreach
to homeless and/or abused pregnant and parenting teen girls in crisis. The total budget for this fiscal year is
$172,843.
2. Describe the goals and objectives of the proposed initiative.
The primary activities of Grandma's House center on achieving success in four major initiative areas:
• Healthy Pregnancies, Healthy Mothers & Healthy Babies: To provide a safe nurturing shelter and
supportive environment for teens in crisis pregnancy resulting in healthy full term pregnancies and healthy
newborns. Giving solid parenting tools for teen parents, teen mothers with newborn infants and support of
teens choosing adoption. To teach, support and encourage pregnant and parenting teens to become
healthy, self-sufficient, nurturing adults so that they can in turn foster healthy nurturing attitudes and skills in
their children.
• Grandma's Closet: To re -donate maternity and baby items, clothing, furniture, bedding and personal care
items to low income/no income families with infants and babies through our network of 21 Community
referral partners. Grandma's Closet has been in existence at Grandma's House since 1993 and is run by a
staff Volunteer Coordinator, volunteers and through the participation of residents.
• Angel's Wing After -Care Program: To support our parenting teen mothers transitioning from Grandma's
House into independent living within the community. Under the "Angel's Wing" participants receive case
management, one-on-one counseling, and activities for moms and babies to interact in a supportive and
social environment with a focus on goal setting and continuing education.
• Teen Pregnancy Awareness, Prevention & the Realities of Teen Pregnancy: To promote and engage
the community in teen pregnancy awareness, prevention, effects of alcohol and drugs on newborns and
teen parenting realities by doing interactive presentations to not only pregnant teens and classrooms but
also out in the community by addressing at risk youth and young adults.
3. Identify the target population which will be served.
Over the course of a year, we serve in a residential setting, numerous generational members of families. At any
given time, we serve at least eight young women and their babies. In the larger context, we also serve teen girls'
parents and families as we provide counsel in acceptance, support of new life challenges for teens who are
experiencing new responsibilities in their lives. Our teens are planning for education, a career, and managing life
with a baby. We help our teen clients in decision making and learning life skills. In many cases, we serve teen
fathers of babies, supporting them in decision making processes. In general, we help provide assistance for our
young mothers in achieving success and making life decisions related to school, employment and a new life's
responsibility with a child to care for.
2
4. Identify the geographic area(s) of Deschutes County which will benefit.
The majority of our teens and babies served are from the greater population area of Bend.
5. Describe how the proposed initiative will positively impact the community and complement existing
services currently provided by Deschutes County.
In serving the Central Oregon community for the last 22+ years, Grandma's House has built a strong
reputation and connection to the community. Our community partnerships include a maternal child health nurse
assigned through Deschutes County Health Department Nurse Family Partnership, education through the Bend High
Teen Parent Program, health and developmental screenings through Healthy Beginnings, food via the
Neighborlmpact Feed the Need Program, and volunteer screening and transportation assistance through the
Department of Human Service.
6. Describe in detail how the proposed initiative will be implemented.
We have staffing in place. We have an established residential home for teen mothers and their babies. Our
educational and outreach programs are implemented on an on-going basis, year-round.
7. Describe specifically how the requested funds will be used.
The requested funds will be used to support the operational expenses of Grandma's House, its
staffing/operations, and educational programming throughout Deschutes County. We conduct workshops for teens,
and other support programs.
8. Identify any partner agencies which will collaborate to implement the proposed initiative.
Again, Grandma's House is the only shelter of its kind east of the Cascades in Oregon. We serve as an
outreach resource to pregnant and parenting teens in Deschutes County. As mentioned previously, our community
partnerships include a maternal child health nurse assigned through Deschutes County Health Department/Nurse
Family Partnership, education through the Bend High Teen Parent Program, health and developmental screenings
through Healthy Beginnings, food via the Neighborlmpact Feed the Need Program, volunteer screening and
transportation assistance through the Department of Human Services.
9. Describe other sources of funding that will support the proposed initiative.
To date, we have received the following funding commitments: United Way of Deschutes County Allocations &
Designated Donations $34,000; Emergency Food & Shelter Program $5,000; Emergency Shelter Grant Program
$10,000.
We submitted a funding request (by invitation) to the Maybelle Clark Macdonald Fund for $15,000 this month.
We have also submitted an application to the Brooks Resources Corporation in Bend for $5,000 and the Chambers
Family Foundation for $7,500. And, we will be submitting the following requests in the coming months: PGE
Foundation, $5,000; The Autzen Foundation, $5,000; Meyer Memorial Trust, $20,000; Oregon Community
Foundation, $15,000; and First Story, $2,000.
In addition, Grandma's house receives donations from individuals, businesses, and service organizations. We
send an annual giving letter at the end of the year that generates funding for our organization.

Performance Measurement
1. Identify quantifiable outputs anticipated to be achieved through the proposed initiative (examples:
number of persons served, programs or events held, animals rescued, acres restored or protected).
The children of teen mothers are more likely to be born prematurely and at low birth weight and are two times
more likely to suffer abuse and neglect compared to children of older mothers. It is widely recognized that prenatal
health care, as well as a healthy and secure lifestyle, significantly reduces the number of low birth weights and other
medical complications which are typical to the pregnant teen and an expensive burden to the medical system.
Further, without supportive counseling and education, teen mothers and their children are often destined to live lives
of poverty, neglect, and potential abuse.
When a pregnant teen comes to Grandma's House she feels she is at the end of the road; homeless, hungry,
tired and most often sick, she may only be looking for a hot meal and a safe place to sleep. At Grandma's House she
will find hope and a path to a future that she didn't know existed. Some will stay a night, some will stay a year; all say
that their lives were improved by their experience. They enter our program to carry out healthy full term pregnancies,
learn to parent an infant already born, or to complete a successful adoption. While here they will gain the necessary
life -skills for a smooth transition into independent living or a safe return to family.
2. Describe the anticipated outcomes of the proposed initiative (examples: fewer persons
institutionalized, greater knowledge and understanding of local history, fewer animals in shelter care,
more natural areas available for wildlife and recreation).
Our anticipated program outcomes include:
• Healthy Pregnancy with decreased pre -term complications
• Teens follow proper nutritional guidelines for healthy fetal development and nutritional needs of self and
child with increased awareness of healthcare needs
• Increased knowledge of parenting skills, reduced neglect/ Child Protective Services intervention
• Teen mothers provide appropriate care and social interaction to their babies
• Meeting the needs of 100% of referrals for infants in need of warm, clean clothing
• Reduced duplication of services by effective communication with community partners
We will measure success by the following:
• Full term pregnancy with healthy infant birth weight
• Assessments done by visiting health nurse and Healthy Families of the High Desert
• 75% of teen mothers still breast-feeding after 3 months
• 100% of babies seen in routine appointments and have up to date vaccinations at 8 weeks
• Teen mom participation in workshops in nutrition, parenting and self-esteem classes
• Records kept of 250+ referrals filled from Grandma's Closet
• Feedback from recipients and community partners
Grandma's House extends its great appreciation for the opportunity to apply for funding assistance through the
Deschutes County Community Grant Program.

Organization
1. Describe the history of the organization, including the year the organization was
established.
In 2003, Housing Works (abn of Central Oregon's regional housing authority) created Families
Forward, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit community development corporation. The nonprofit was formed in
response to the increased need for programs and services for the residents of Housing Works -
controlled affordable apartment communities and the housing authority's program participants.
2. State the organization's mission, goals, and programs or services provided.
Families Forward's mission is "Fostering personal achievement for Central Oregonians. " It is our
belief, that provided with educational opportunities and economic resources, low-income families can
thrive and become self-sustaining. This is reflected in our core service areas: Family Sustainability,
Personal Asset Building, and Opportunities for Kids. Our programs are aimed at offering low-income
families the tools and knowledge they need to become personally and economically self-sufficient
and self-sustaining. Families Forward has grown steadily since its creation. It now offers nine
programs ranging from an adult education series to overcome negative rental histories to youth
programs for educational, recreational, and social opportunities to one-on-one homeownership
counseling.
3. Describe the leadership and structure of the organization.
Thomas J. Kemper, Executive Director, is responsible for the overall operations of Families Forward
and its programs. Kemper has twenty-five years of extensive experience in real estate investment,
finance and development. With a legal, tax and accounting background, Kemper has developed a
strong track record in the financing and development of over $2 billion in real estate transactions.
Patty Schouviller, Housing and Resident Services Director, is responsible for day-to-day program
implementation, working closely with community partners. She is responsible for integration of
resident services at all Housing Works -controlled properties.
Kenny LaPoint, Public Affairs Director for Families Forward is responsible for fund development
within Families Forward.
Program, Project, or Activity
1. Provide a title of the proposed initiative for which funds are being requested.
Opportunities for Kids after school and summer program
2. Describe the goals and objectives of the proposed initiative.
Opportunities for Kids will provide positive child and youth programs for the low-income children
residing at Housing Works' properties. The program will offer children access to best practices
programs that: improve study habits; provide homework assistance; help youth avoid peer pressure by
teaching refusal skills for alcohol, drugs, tobacco and premature sexual activity; improve health;
encourage creativity through art and literature classes; and promote sportsmanship and team work
through recreational sports and community projects in a safe and supervised environment after school
and during the summer
The objective of the Opportunities for Kids program is in the title, "Opportunity". By providing
positive and accessible environments staffed by knowledgeable staff, we are creating opportunities
for the most vulnerable children in our community: opportunities to graduate from high school, attend
post -secondary schooling and become high producing members of society. The end goal of these
programs is to break the cycle of poverty in our community.
3. Identify the target population which will be served.
Low incomes limit the ability of households to access the services or programs that could provide
their children with the educational, recreational, and social opportunities they currently lack. Through
the Opportunities for Kids program, Families Forward has the potential of impacting the lives of up to
1,600 low income youth between 4-18 years old currently residing in Housing Works affordable
housing properties. The children are from very -low to low-income, mainly single -parent households
that just scrape by on one or more retail or service jobs and some form of public assistance. A family
of 4 may earn up to 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) or $49,400. A majority of the households
only earn up to 50% AMI ($31,200 for a family of 4).
4. Identify the geographic area(s) of Deschutes County which will benefit.
The Opportunities for Kids after school and summer youth program will serve children residing
in Housing Works controlled properties in Deschutes County. The following properties would be
served by the program:
Summit Park (88 units)

Youth Programs
5. Describe how the proposed initiative will positively impact the community and complement
existing services currently provided by Deschutes County.
Youth programs help ease the burden on families, especially those headed by single parents. They
allow parents the time to work more hours or increase their education, thereby creating more
opportunities for self-sufficiency and ultimately breaking the cycle of poverty.
With positive supervised activities for youth, the surrounding community at large will benefit through
decreased crime (drug use, vandalism, etc.), resulting in cost savings to public systems.
6. Describe in detail how the proposed initiative will be implemented.
The Opportunities for Kids program will be implemented through the provision of:
• On-site youth programs, both after school and during the summer, at Housing Works
apartment communities and provided in collaboration with Boys & Girls Clubs.
• Off-site youth program scholarships provided in partnership with Boys and Girls Clubs and
Kids Inc. (Bend Parks and Recreation)
All programs will be marketed, by site managers and the resident service coordinator to the low-
income families residing in Housing Works' properties.
7. Describe specifically how the requested funds will be used
The funds will be used for the continued operation of on-site youth programs at Housing Works
owned properties as well as to provide scholarships for youth seeking to attend off-site after school
and summer youth programs.
8. Identify any partner agencies which will collaborate to implement the proposed initiative.
• Boys and Girls Clubs
• Bend Parks and Recreation (Kids Inc.)
9. Describe other sources of funding that will support the proposed initiative.
• Housing Works resident service fees ($35,000 annually)
6 Rental Income from Families Forward owned property, Gateway Commons
($8,000 Annually)
• Private and foundation grants (Estimated at $10,000 annually)
Performance Measurement
1. Identify quantifiable outputs anticipated to be achieved through the proposed initiative
(examples: number of persons served, programs or events held, animals rescued, acres
restored or protected).
• 50 participating youth
• 25% higher graduation rate for participants compared to non -participants
• 25% higher post -secondary education completion rates for participants compared to non-
participants
2. Describe the anticipated outcomes of the proposed initiative (examples: fewer persons
institutionalized, greater knowledge and understanding of local history, fewer animals in
shelter care, more natural areas available for wildlife and recreation).
• Increased youth participation due to availability of resources
• Decreases in the overall poverty rate (breaking the cycle of poverty)
• Well maintained affordable housing
• More kids doing better academically
• Fewer kids getting into trouble and as a result less property damage in the community

SVDP(St.Vincent de Paul) Redmond Store Operations- Recycling Project
1) St. Vincent de Paul Redmond was organized as a 501 c 3 effective November 2, 2006 in
Redmond, Oregon.
2) The mission of the organization was and is to provide assistance and services to individuals and
families in the Redmond, Oregon area, who are in need. Services include: food boxes,
rent/mortgage assistance, utility/propane assistance, clothing, household, furniture, education
and referrals to partner agencies.
3) SVDP Redmond is led by a volunteer Board of Directors who oversee all the financial matters
and important decisions for the organization. The Social Services. Food Bank, and Thrift Store
Operations have Managers/Directors who report to a liaison from the Board. All staff and
volunteers at each department answer to the Managers/Directors.
1) SVDP Recycling Project and purchase of a forklift/supplies and storage for the forklift, is the
project for which funds are being requested.
2) The goal of the project is to expand the recycling efforts of SVDP Redmond; to reduce the cost of
waste disposal, to increase funding for SVDP, and to assist with the quality of the environment.
Currently, recycling operations include the recycling of cardboard, metal, clothing, shoes, books.
The purchase of a forklift/storage is needed to expand recycling efforts to include palletized
electronics in partnership with C.Kiwila & Assoc. on behalf of RLGA (recycles non -operational or
old electronics for manufacturers or private businesses).
3) Residents of Deschutes County, who are located in the Redmond community area, who are in
need, will be served through the benefits of this project.
4) The Redmond community area would be the primary area benefitted from this project.
5) By expanding recycle efforts to include electronics, SVDP will save $ on waste disposals, will
increase revenues, and will utilize those $ to further assist residents in Deschutes
County/Redmond community area who are in need. Expanded assistance services to those in
need coupled with reducing landfill costs/dumping will assist Deschutes County in cost saving
measures.
6) The plan by SVDP Redmond will, acquire funding to purchase a forklift/storage/supplies/misc. as
needed to implement the expanded recycle program and will work with C.Kiwila & Assoc./RLGA
to carry out the program.
7) All funds granted or acquired will be used for the expanded electronic recycle program.
8) Partners would be SVDP Redmond, Kiwila & Assoc./RGLA and Deschutes County through cost
savings and environmental savings measures.
9) If needed, SVDP Redmond will contribute funding to assist in the purchases and implementation
of this project.
-2- Recycling Project continued
1) By palletizing and recycling used and defective electronics, SVDP will use Tess funding for landfill
disposals, will dispose of less mass at the local landfill, and will see an increase of approximately
$200-$300 per month in revenues.
2) Anticipated outcomes for the project include savings and increased revenues for SVDP,
increased services to those in need, and less disposals at the landfill.

Organization
1. Describe the history of the organization, including the year the organization was
established.
The history of the American Red Cross is inseparable from the history of America itself. Since
1881, American Red Cross members and volunteers have been an essential part of our nation's
response to war, natural disaster and other human suffering. We've been witness to great tragedy,
but more importantly we've seen the triumph of the human spirit as people work together to help
each other rebuild their lives and communities. The American Red Cross was first chartered in
Oregon on February 4, 1917. Throughout World War I, Red Cross volunteers made garments,
bandages and surgical dressings. A Red Cross canteen provided comfort to service personnel
traveling through Oregon. During the influenza epidemic of 1918, Red Cross assisted overtaxed
health agencies. The chapter recruited nurses and provided necessary items such as pneumonia
jackets and masks. During the depression, Red Cross volunteers made and distributed food and
clothing to needy families.
2. State the organization's mission and goals.
The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by
mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.
The American Red Cross, through its strong network of volunteers, donors and partners, is always
there in times of need. We aspire to turn compassion into action so that...
...all people affected by disaster across the country and around the world receive care, shelter and
hope;
...our communities are ready and prepared for disasters;
...everyone in our country has access to safe, lifesaving blood and blood products;
...all members of our armed services and their families find support and comfort whenever needed;
and
...in an emergency, there are always trained individuals nearby, ready to use their Red Cross skills
to save lives.
3. Describe the leadership and structure of the organization. If governed by a Board of
Directors, list the members' names and positions held.
The Oregon Mountain River Chapter is led by an Executive Director, Lisa Stroup, who is supported
and overseen by the Chapter's Board of Directors.

FY2013-14 Community Grant Application
3. Identify the target population which will be served.
Our preparedness education and community resiliency planning work will involve and benefit a
wide variety of Deschutes County residents, including youth, adults, schools, non -profits,
businesses, faith -based organizations, government entities, neighborhood associations, etc.
Because groups such as the elderly, children, people living in poverty, and those with disabilities
are disproportionately impacted and face the hardest road to recovery after disasters large and small,
an important component of this project is reaching vulnerable populations. We will make special
efforts to ensure our preparedness education is reaching underserved groups such as economically
disadvantaged children and families, those with physical challenges, youth, seniors, and English-
language learners. We will also make sure that the needs of these vulnerable populations are
considered as communities are developing their resiliency action plans.
4. Describe how the proposed initiative will positively impact the community and complement
existing services currently provided by Deschutes County.
Every resilient community has designated responders- government agencies and groups such as the
Red Cross — that stand ready to help after a disaster. To ensure that we act as a tightly coordinated
response network, the Red Cross convenes partner agencies. Together, the partners define roles and
responsibilities, confirm that we have the right tools and resources, and develop clear collaboration
plans. Developing these partnerships improves our ability to reach and assist the vulnerable
members of our community. When our community works together as a team we are able to avoid
redundancy, identify gaps in our system, and better utilize our resources.
Through Prepare!, the Red Cross will convene and strengthen partnerships so that together we can
develop a stronger, more resilient county — positively impacting our residents, businesses, schools,
and organizations and saving lives and livelihoods in the event of a disaster.
5. Identify the geographic area(s) of Deschutes County which will benefit.
Residents throughout the entire county will benefit from preparedness education and the capacity -
building work we will do to improve the resiliency of communities around the county
6. Describe in detail how the proposed initiative will be implemented.
Project implementation involves three major components:
1. Community Engagement
As the nation's most trusted partner in disaster response and preparedness, the Red Cross is
uniquely qualified to facilitate a planning and implementation process that results in community-
wide disaster response and recovery plans.
• Bring together neighborhoods, organizations, faith -based groups, schools, businesses, local
government and community leaders to review their specific risks and current level of
preparedness. This is the process we used for the Prepare! Redmond Initiative.
3
Deschutes County
FY2013-14 Community Grant Application
Increase Deschutes County volunteer response/preparedness teams by recruiting, training, and
engaging these volunteers in disaster specific exercises, activities, and educational opportunities.
2. Preparedness Education
Throughout Deschutes County, we will provide training that covers topics such as local disaster
risks, first aid, CPR, sheltering, and other preparedness skills. We will educate citizens of all ages
about disasters that can occur in our geographic area and how to prevent, prepare for and respond to
these situations by establishing family meeting places and addressing emergency communication
strategies, making personal and family disaster plans, and building emergency supply kits. We can
tailor this education to various audiences, including young children (using our Preparedness Pals
and Pillow Case Programs) older youth (with our Together We Prepare Program), seniors, and non-
English speakers (with our adult version of Prepare!). We also have a specific training program for
businesses and organizations (including government agencies).This program will give them the
tools and resources to develop a resiliency/recovery plan for their facility and staff. All four of
these preparedness programs were put in place during the first year of this program and have proved
extremely effective. Please see the attached Completion Report for actual statistics.
We will make special efforts to reach the county's most vulnerable populations, especially by
partnering with non -profits that serve these groups such as NeighborImpact, The Bethlehem Inn,
Grandma's House, The Loft, other Deschutes County United Way Partner Agencies and Head Start.
Activities will include:
• Educating the employees, volunteers, and clients at partner non -profits about preparedness
• Helping partner non -profits develop and/or update their organization's disaster plans
• Identifying ways to integrate preparedness into the ongoing structures and activities of these
partner non -profits
3. Disaster Response Capacity -Building
We will build the capacity of Deschutes County to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a
disaster, so that lives are saved, damage is minimized, and residents — families, businesses,
organizations, and public services — are able to bounce back in a timely manner.
This capacity -building work includes:
• Recruiting and training local volunteers;
• Identifying new sites for shelters;
• Restocking and updating pre -positioned disaster supplies; and
• Building a strong community network by increasing the number of community partnerships,
strengthening the relationships among partners, and clarifying roles, responsibilities and
communication strategies in a disaster.
7. Describe specifically how the requested funds will be used.
Funds will be used to support expenses in Deschutes County related to volunteer recruitment,
training, and support; as well as personnel and supplies to deliver preparedness education and
facilitate community engagement and planning.
