Acc ler ;tin-, " CFP c,' , : uULc---ss <br />November 1, 2010 <br />Nancy Edwards <br />Assistant Director, Community Development Agency <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza <br />P.O. Box 1988 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92702 <br />ILLUMINATION <br />Re: Agreement No. A-2009-137 to provide homeless prevention services under the <br />Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Rehousing Program <br />Dear Ms. Edwards, <br />Effective January 1, 2011, the Illumination Foundation ("IF") will begin operations <br />independent of OneOC, formerly the Volunteer Center Orange County. Since <br />December 2008, IF has been fiscally sponsored by OneOC. This relationship with <br />OneOC has allowed IF to focus on building up the vitally needed programs to serve the <br />homeless community in Orange County. OneOC assisted IF with accounting and <br />human resources functions while also advising IF with the establishment of its own <br />infrastructure and board governance. <br />IF has already received 501(c) (3) status from the IRS, and IF is currently implementing its <br />own accounting systems and other infrastructure needs to prepare for independent <br />operations. As part of the preparations, we would like to request that [agency that <br />awarded the contract] transfer the [contract] to Illumination Foundation's independent <br />501 c3 corporation. We would like to amend the contract by December 31, 2010 so <br />that there will be smooth continuation of services provided under the contract. <br />Please let us know what is needed to process the transfer of the contract. We look <br />forward to working with you to continue serving the homeless community in Orange <br />County. <br />Sincerely, <br />Daniel J.cQuaid <br />Presid t & CEO <br />OneOC <br />1901 E. Fourth St., Suite 100 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92705 <br />Cc: Terri Eggers <br />WHIT <br />Paul Leon <br />Executive Director <br />Illumination Foundation <br />2691 Richter Ave., Suite 107 <br />Irvine, CA 92606 <br />
