LETF Funding Request -REVISED

Per your request, we have reduced our LETF budget contribution by half
from $130,000 to $65,000 which now reflects our budget for the period of
January — June 2014. Our understanding is that we will submit the
remaining fiscal year budget of July — December 2014 at a later date
once additional LETF monies become available.
For your records, our last LETF contribution check was dated April 15,
2013 in the amount of $130,000. Although we have generated much
community support of the program and fundraising efforts are ongoing, it
cannot go without saying that the support we receive from LETF is
paramount to the prograrn's survival as it is 56 percent of our total budget.
Most outside monies raised offset our Awards Program (prizes such as
trips, t-shirts, etc.) as well as our four, large, annual community projects
such as our "Back Without A Bang!" Youth Rally Against Violence and
our Summer Salute Awards Night for 300 attendees. LETF is reserved
for operating costs since corporations, foundations, and other
philanthropic entities will not pay for salaries and other necessary
operational expenses.
Do The Right Thing is currently conducting a survey with Miami -Dade
County Public School DTRT Program Coordinators to help us determine
program impact at the school level. To date, we have a 42 percent
response with very positive comments from administrators, counselors,
etc. I would be happy to provide you with our official results once the
survey is completed. The survey results will also assist us in applying for
grants.
Do The Right Thing truly appreciates your support of our program. Thank
you for your consideration of this request and your continued support of
Do The Right Thing and the youth of Miami.
Please contact me if you have any questions or confusion pertaining to
this.
