Commentary:
An anonymous dmmr has approached the Director of Health & Welfareagering a possible renewable grant, W
be Whined solely at the discretion of the Health & Welfare Director, W meet Individual/(amity needs that
cannot be met through other government support programs or the offerings of non-proat/wlumury agencies.
The donor has also requested chat the Director challenge any recipient of these funds to "pay it forward" by
doing a good dead for cities sometime in the f dare. The recipients will remain unknown W all, even the
donor, with the Director proNEing general feedback and an accounting W the donor. As noted, the donor has
expressed Interest in renewing this fund In the future.
I have discussed this offer with the CHWs France Director who Is comfortable that appropriate procedures
on be established to Insure that the donors intent is met and that any funds disbursed are appropriately
monitoretl and accounted for.
Given thatthere are times when a relaCvely small grentfora purpose thatcannot be accommodatedthrough
our General Assistance program or other government or non-profit programs can make a significant
difference in the Was and economic prospects of our clients, I would recommend thatthe Council acceptthls
grant
