Christmas on Columbia
* How will the Donations/Sponsorship be used? (The donation must primarily serve a public purpose, as opposed to solely benefiting an individual or private organization.)
2023 funds went to buying the most basic of lights for the neighbors who needed them most. This year, the funds would be used for additional lights, yard decorations, as well as extension cords which tend to be the biggest request. This will help incentivize new neighbors to join. We meticulously record every purchased item and share it on a shared Google doc that the neighbors choose from and we make sure to give precedent to those in most financial need. * What is the benefit to the City of Pomona? (An expenditure of public funds must be for primary benefit of the public agency that is making the expenditure)
We (Marla and Nathan Neighbour) represent the “Rudolph on Randolph” portion of Christmas one Columbia. Prior to request for funds in 2023, Randolph had only 5 people participate. Last year, however, 27 neighbors on Randolph Street rallied together to be a part of the neighborhood effort. This year, we expect closer to 40+ homes on Randolph. This has increased support for one another, and created a beautiful space for others in Pomona and beyond to come and enjoy for free every night in Dec.

None. We will put it on our school's marquee.

Cafecito Con Libros is a literacy program/event.
* How will the Donations/Sponsorship be used? (The donation must primarily serve a public purpose, as opposed to solely benefiting an individual or private organization.)
It will be used to increase literacy through our reading program. Low literacy in our schools, means low literacy in our city. We want the coming generations to have better human capital and improve their lives.
* What is the benefit to the City of Pomona? (An expenditure of public funds must be for primary benefit of the public agency that is making the expenditure)
Pomona will benefit because many of the students will stay here and become professionals, who will in turn improve the city. Already, you have helped make a huge difference in our overall increase in literacy year over year. Citizens who are better prepared for life will improve our city. A lot of our former students, now college graduates, return to, or remain in Pomona.
