<div>Too many San Mateo residents and business owners are <strong>struggling after the storm. </strong>Many have incurred thousands of dollars in damages to their homes and businesses, losing irreplaceable heirlooms and years of investments.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As the Mayor of the City of San Mateo, the largest city in San Mateo County, I believe in the generosity and resiliency of our community. <strong>We could not wait for FEMA or the State, we needed to step up </strong>when we saw our neighbors and our local businesses in need. That is the San Mateo Way. San Mateans want to help folks get back on their feet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On February 6th, I asked my council colleagues to support a funding allocation from the City and a proposal to administer the fund through a nonprofit partner. The San Mateo council approved an additional allocation of $150,000 of City funds and a contract with our local nonprofit to administer the San Mateo Flood Relief Fund.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are thrilled to partner with Samaritan House, a core service agency in the County that specializes in case management, and vetting program benefit eligibility and can tap into wrap-around services when needed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Applications for the combined $200,000+ San Mateo Flood Relief Fund will be available in English, Spanish, and Chinese. Eligible San Mateo residents and businesses can apply for grant assistance for up to $5,000 - applications will open soon!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The need is so great and your donation will make a difference. Together we can help flood victims in the City of San Mateo receive relief and support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sincerely,
</div>
<div><br />
