I hope <br />you will consider a decision to award funds to the Center for low- <br />'` income seniors from San Leandro. I made an innocent mistake: I <br />put the wrong deadline due date on my calendar. <br />Lack of funding means that 15 to 25 adults from San Leandro <br />will loose scholarships for the next two years. <br />The Center has received funds for the City of San Leandro since our <br />opening in 1984. St. Peter's is the only adult day care center in San <br />Leandro. We have continued to serve low-income families and our <br />demographics reflect the diversity of our community. About 52% of <br />our seniors are residents of San Leandro and they will have, without <br />going outside of the City, no where else to turn. <br />Most seniors attend to the Center to cope with the aftermath <br />of a devastating stroke or other neurological diseases such as <br />Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.
