Hello,
As you are considering the applications received for the City of SLO DEI grant, I'd like to take a moment to
share my appreciation of your hard work in choosing from the many worthy organizations who have
applied. I'd also like to thank you for your consideration of our organization's application. I plan to be in
attendance at the upcoming forum to reiterate how our work addresses systemic inequities related to
BIPOC youth and their access to mentorship.
I'd also like to take a moment to express our support of the application that was submitted by the
Diversity Coalition of San Luis Obispo. The work done by the Diversity Coalition benefits us and many
other local non-profits. Our agency recently benefited from bringing on a board member who graduated
from the BIPOC Board Leadership Training. Their work absolutely helps to make SLO County a more
inclusive and equitable community, and I'd like to acknowledge that through this letter of support.
Thank you for your service to the City of San Luis Obispo. I recognize how difficult these funding
decisions are, and we appreciate your careful consideration of each applicant.
Sincerely,
Stacy Salame
Executive Director
Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Luis Obispo County
