USE OF GRANT. The Grant shall be used to assist with the Program during the Term (as defined in Section 4) of this Agreement, in accordance with the Program's approved scope of work and budget ("Program Budget"), attached hereto as Exhibit "B." Grantee is aware that the SEOPW CRA is not obligated to expend additional funds beyond the approved Grant amount. 4. TERM. a. INITIAL TERM.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the SEOPW CRA shall make available to Grantee an amount not to exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($200,000.00). In no event shall payments to Grantee under this Agreement exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($200,000.00). Payments shall be made to Grantee or directly to vendors on behalf of Grantee, only after receipt and approval of requests for disbursements in accordance with the approved Program Budget. b. DEPOSIT OF GRANT FUNDS INTO SEPARATE CHECKING ACCOUNT. A separate checking account must be created for the sole purpose of depositing SEOPW CRA grant funds, prior to the disbursement of any grant funds. Said account shall not be used to deposit funds from other funding sources or to make payments other than to transfer funds to the Grantee's general operating checking account. c. REQUESTS FOR DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS. All requests for the disbursement of funds by Grantee shall be submitted in writing to the SEOPW CRA by Grantee's authorized representative prior to the termination of this Agreement. All such requests must be accompanied by supporting documents reflecting the use of funds and/or expenditures incurred, and that the request is being made in accordance with the approved Program Budget, as reflected in Exhibit `B," for expenditures incurred during the Term of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, "supporting documentation" may include invoices, receipts, photographs, and any other materials evidencing the expense incurred.

Grantee's failure to provide additional supporting documentation or explanation regarding expenses incurred, when requested by the SEOPW CRA, shall serve as grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement, and Grantee solely shall bear all costs associated with any expenditures not approved by the SEOPW CRA. 2 d. PRE -APPROVAL OF EXPENSES. Grantee agrees to submit to the SEOPW CRA all requests for the expenditure of Grant funds for pre -approval by the SEOPW CRA.

APPROVAL OF BUDGET MODIFICATIONS. Grantee agrees to submit any and all budget modifications, in writing, including line -item expenditures and descriptions, which exceed the budgeted amount, to the Executive Director for approval. f. CASH AND MOBILE PAYMENT TRANSACTIONS PROHIBITED. The Parties agree that no payment will be made to Grantee as a reimbursement for any Project -specific expenditure paid in cash or via mobile payment application(s), including, but not limited to, Cash App, Zelle, PayPal, and Venmo.

The SEOPW CRA shall not make advance payments to Grantee or Grantee's vendors for services not performed or for goods, materials, or equipment which have not been delivered to Grantee for use in connection with the Program. 6.

McQueen Executive Director Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency 819 NW 2nd Avenue, 3rd Floor Miami, Florida 33136 Re: FY'25 HEAT Proposal to Continue Partnership Training Hospitality Applicants for Good Culinary Jobs Dear Mr. McQueen: Thank you for the opportunity to submit a proposal to continue our partnership with the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency to provide culinary skills training to Overtown residents with a goal of placing program graduates in good, union hospitality jobs. We are grateful for CRA's longstanding support of HEAT's training program. This letter will serve as a summary of the attached proposal for fiscal year 2025. Hospitality Employees Advancement and Training, Inc. (HEAT) is a non-profit which provides culinary training in partnership with hospitality union UNITE HERE Local355, union hospitality employers in South Florida, and importantly the CRA. HEAT conducts culinary skills training at the Overtown Performing Arts Center kitchen. These classes are provided at no cost to students. What makes HEAT's program unique is that HEAT tailors its training to meet the needs of participating employers and assists graduates with job placement in union jobs that provide excellent benefits, such as free family health insurance, good wages, a pension, and recall rights. In the attached proposal, HEAT is requesting $200,000 for fiscal year 2025 to fund student recruitment, culinary instruction, and cooking supplies for a year of culinary courses. Our budgeted expenses include personnel costs for the culinary instructor and outreach coordinator, cooking materials such as food, uniforms, knife sets for graduating students, and insurance costs. HEAT was formed in the Fall of 2018, and it has conducted 14, 8-week classes for line cooks. Since 2022, 19 Overtown residents graduated from the culinary program, 15 of whom were placed in good union jobs. A few profiles of these inspirational graduates are attached in our proposal, including LeCurtis Jackson, an Overtown native, who enrolled in HEAT's program to pursue his dream of becoming a cook after a battle with cancer. He graduated in 2023 and was placed as a union prep cook at Delaware North, a hospitality concessionaire. EXHIBIT "B" As South Florida's hospitality industry flourishes and expands, employers face shortages of skilled workers, especially cooks. HEAT's partnership with the CRA has been essential to our program's ability to train Overtown residents for good union jobs with the potential for career growth in the region's core industry. We look forward to continuing our partnership with your team.

Despite life's challenges, including his father's passing when LeCurtis was just five years old, his dream of becoming a chef never waned. In 2015, LeCurtis moved to Fort Pierce, FL, seeking new opportunities. However, his journey took an unexpected turn in 2019 when he was diagnosed with cancer. Moving back to Miami in 2020, LeCurtis began an intense battle against the disease, undergoing chemotherapy and being given only three months to live. With immense courage and determination, he fought through and eventually beat cancer. After his recovery, LeCurtis decided it was time to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a chef. He discovered the HEAT Culinary Program through a flyer, which reignited his passion for the culinary arts. Although he initially started with Cohort 8, a health setback forced him to pause his studies. Not one to give up easily, LeCurtis re -enrolled with Cohort 9 and successfully graduated, marking a significant milestone in his life. Grateful for the unwavering support from his family and his faith in God, LeCurtis proudly walked across the graduation stage, knowing that he had overcome immense obstacles. Today, LeCurtis is a prep cook at Delaware North, where he continues to learn and apply his culinary skills across various establishments. His current role has fueled his ambition to advance to a line cook position, a goal he is diligently working toward. LeCurtis's story is one of resilience, faith, and an unyielding pursuit of his dreams. His journey through life's challenges has not only shaped his character but has also made him a true inspiration to those around him. EXHIBIT U3!'
