I have known Hiba since 2015 when she first <br />contracted to teach visual and performing arts classes at Delhi Center. Hiba has been a tremendous <br />resource since her first class and has provided countless hours of opportunities for artistic <br />expression and enjoyment for residents of the Delhi neighborhood and the surrounding community. <br />Hiba's classes were so successful that her original contract was expanded to include a summer day <br />camp, which was first operated in the summer of 2016. She has added winter and spring camps to <br />serve children during out-of-school hours, which is a critical time for children. Hiba has also <br />consistently added new and creative components to her day camps and has a vision for generating <br />excitement for the arts in children and their families. <br />Her proposed project will provide an opportunity for camp participants to recognize their <br />community heroes who make Santa Ana the great city it is today. Their work will be published to <br />give them a sense of pride and to share their artistic endeavors. I am confident that ALBI's project <br />will be an asset to Santa Ana residents who will benefit firorn increasing their engagement in the <br />arts. <br />Please do not hesitate to contact ine if you require further information. <br />Sincerely, <br />r <br />Jenny ios, cT <br />enter <br />emtyrios(a�dellveenter.ore <br />714-481-9601 <br />Our vwx iov i /,) arkinca tr!/-tt((jr eeuc7- zkau�?i siwainable pivgiwmr iv hea/th;1i iancial ,Yal ib/1=, zdxratioir, wld epru wool y e�,ga&m,✓a/. <br />
