Glover. FISCAL IMPACT No impact on General Fund. Monies will be allocated from the Keller Canyon Mitigation Fund. BACKGROUND The United Parents Booster Club is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization established with the purpose of providing assistance and mentoring to young women on the Pittsburg High School girls basketball program. The majority of the young women come from low-income or single parent homes and cannot afford the expenses related to participating in extracurricular activities. Providing an opportunity to these young women to participate on the basketball team and other positive activities will increase the likelihood that they will remain in school and reduce the risk of them getting into trouble. Keller funds will be used to help the young women purchase the requisite equipment and uniforms needed to participate on the basketball team. Funds will also be provided to pay for tutors for the young women to help them succeed in school. The Community Development Department will prepare a Standard Contract (Purchase of Services - Short Form) and funds will be disbursed directly to the Booster club as specified in the contract.
