Good morning Human Relations Commission,
I write this email today to thank you for the recommendation to partially fund Diversity Coalition's application for our
BIPOC Board Leadership Training Program. We are looking forward to attending tonight's meeting and thank you in
person as well.
However, we would also like to use this opportunity to provide our support to the application submitted by R.A.C.E.
Matters. Their proposal for funding their "Shop Talk" and "Hair Fund" projects is revolutionary for our local community.
Once again, they are breaking ground for the type of spaces we should be building in San Luis Obispo and the type of
care that our community deserves.
We thank you for considering their application and look forward to continuing working in partnership with you and our
local nonprofits doing the hard work.
Sincerely,
--
Rita Casaverde - Executive Director
