At their April 22, 2009 Board of Directors meeting, the Santa Ana Empowerment Corporation (SAEC) approved funding of $156,319 to The Cambodian Family and $81,136 to EI Puente Community Development Corporation dba KidWorks for proposals submitted in a recent Request for Proposal (RFP) process for programs and services to Empowerment Zone residents. This action was to fully obligate the remaining Empowerment Zone program funds before the end of the FEZ designation. 20C-1
