Dear County Commissioners:

My name is Kim Ponzio and I serve a nonprofit organization, Family Promise of Gainesville, Inc. Our organization has been working tirelessly for over 25 years to helpend childhood homelessness in our area. Service providers are facing thepossibility of losing substantial state and federal funding because the UnitedWay, who currently serves the Continuum of Care (COC) Lead Agency role, will nolonger act in that capacity as of June 2024. If a lead COC Agency is not identified,service providers like Family Promise of Gainesville cannot access vitalfunding for families with children who are experiencing homelessness. OurCall to Action letter is attached for your reference. Please act now to ensurenecessary services continue.



Our ExecutiveDirector, Shari Jones, can be reached at [log in to unmask] foradditional information.




Kind regards,
Kimberli PonzioFamily Promise of GainesvilleBoard of Directors, Secretary(352) 332-5760
