Christmas in April* • EXHIBIT C SCOPE AF WORK Nino in 9pril * �ervin?Ordn?e-bu��y ��,, .0. Box5i:'I8$ [, : �e Cai: orria 92619-1088 '1'.4 �0.50, �u Dear Friends: This will be the 10'b year Christmas in April has organized our Rebuilding Project for renovating and repairing the homes of low income, elderly and disabled families. Last year we did repairs on 36 houses and non-profit facilities with over 1400 volunteers. All work is done at no cost to the homeowner. We invite you to refer homeowners to us for consideration if you feel they meet our eligibility. Our eligibility criteria includes the requirements that the recipients live in Orange County, own their home (no rentals), are unable to do the work themselves, and are willing to cooperate and work with us. Christmas in April previews each house, selects those appropriate for the program and carefully devises a work plan for each house. A House Captain is assigned and a crew of volunteers works under the guidance of that House Captain from approximately 8 a.m. to 4 p.m on the Rebuilding Day, Saturday, April 15, 2000. All labor is volunteered, some are skilled tradespeople, but many are unskilled. There is a great deal of scraping and painting that goes on, but we also do electrical and plumbing repairs, carpentry work, glazing, weather stripping and other tasks needed to make the home warm, safe, dry and secure. We do require that all able-bodied homeowners and family members join in the work The deadline for house nominations is January 14, 2000; houses will be previewed in the order they are referred. We will begin previewing houses in November and continue until we have our quota. Please realize that we may not be able to accept all houses that are referred. Referrals have been invited from numerous agencies and communities across Orange County. While April seems a long way away, we have found that to arrange for supplies and assign volunteers to all the houses, we need several months to carefully prepare for the Rebuilding Day. If possible, please check with any homeowner you feel may be in need of our housing improvement services before you recommend them; and help them understand that this is a project staffed by volunteers and would be provided at no cost to them. We cannot make promises — above all, we do not want to disappoint people. Thank you for sharing in our effort to bring Christmas to folks — in April. Please feel free to call us with your referrals or questions at (714) 667-8174.
