(PYHO) began to work with Anaheim <br />homeowners who were low- and moderate-income seniors or disabled <br />households. Throughout the years, PYHO has refurbished 625 homes with a <br />volunteer force of 1,500 people. Homeowners who benefit from this program <br />incur no costs and sweat-equity is welcomed but not required. <br /> <br />Last year, PYHO received Agency funding for the implementation of a paint <br />and minor rehabilitation program in Santa Ana. The objective was to paint <br />30 homes occupied by low- and moderate-income households. PYHO <br />successfully raised more than $12,000 in cash contributions and an <br />additional $23,000 in in-kind donations. There were more than 500 <br />volunteers recruited to participate, and PYHO exceeded its goal by <br />completing 34 homes. <br /> <br />This year, PYHO is requesting $92,000 to continue the implementation of <br />the program. The goal this year is to paint and provide minor <br />rehabilitation to a minimum of 35 households. To qualify for the program, <br />households must be elderly or disabled owner-occupants who are very low- <br />or low income. <br /> <br />25J-1 <br />
