Exhibit A SCOPE OF WORK: 1. Proposal shall include details of food supply and/or food distribution services to be provided, the tasks to be accomplished, duration of the program (proposals may be up to two years) and the deliverables to be provided United Across Borders Foundation has developed a tried-and-true approach to setting up well - run and orderly food distribution operations. We work with a wide range of partners, including Amazon Fresh, Giving Children Hope, Fundacion Sahuayo, Albertsons, Abound Food Organization, Food Finders, and we continue to develop relationships with new grocery stores, food banks, and corporations. Our partners reach out to us when they have donations; we collect the donations, store and/or distribute them at events targeted at Santa Ana's most at - risk, low-income communities. For these events, we coordinate all outreach, staffing and organization, and provide participants with additional information about social services and support in their communities. With support from the Revive Santa Ana funds, we will immediately double, if not triple, our ability to collect, store, and deliver food throughout Santa Ana. During the pandemic, we held one to two food distribution events each month, typically serving between 350-500 families at each event. With the support of the Revive Santa Ana grant, we will host at least one event per week in low-income communities throughout Santa Ana. Our proposed program has a duration of one year. Our deliverables for the Revive Santa Ana grant will be as follows 1. Hold one to two large events per week, 10 to 18 events in the 12 month grant period in low-income Santa Ana communities. Based on our average event size of 400, we estimate serving a total of 17,000 families during our one-year time frame. Low-income communities will be identified using QCT data and relevant economic data from huduser.gov and justicemap.org. 2. Track our efforts by collecting data via pre -registration and registration while participants wait in line for their donated goods. Information will be collected both online and on paper, to accommodate the spectrum of capabilities of Santa Ana residents. 3. Track and count very low-income families and place them in our UABF Palanca Program. A family in the Palanca Program will be a family in dire need of our services and at great or imminent risk of malnutrition and/or eviction due to lack of income because of citizenship status, illness, disability, or other hardship as determined by UAB census data and/or registration form submitted. These families may opt into a food delivery program to either pick up items at smaller events for Palanca Program participants, or may opt to have them delivered through our Food Box Delivery program. We will engage at least 3,500 families/6,0000 residents be a part of our UABF Palanca Program.
