Proposal for the City of Santa Ana <br />JYMorgan <br />the knowledge needed for schools to engage in a systematic and sustainable <br />improvement process. Funding will help Pivot Learning Partners to provide Santa Ana <br />Unified School District with a suite of district -level support services totaling $150,000, <br />Including coaching with the Superintendent, Cabinet members, and instructional services <br />leaders to promote coherence, consistency and focus for increased student learning. <br />They want to deepen their partnership further by extending district -level and principal <br />support to provide direct school level coaching to secondary principals in order to <br />improve teaching and learning in Algebra 1 classes for 8th and 9th grades. 80% of the <br />students in Santa Ana School District receive a free or reduced lunch. <br />In December 2009, J.P. Morgan provided a $40,000 grant to Jamboree Housing <br />Corporation for their Community Development initiative. Jamboree Housing Corporation <br />(JHC) has strengthened communities by developing quality affordable housing and <br />resident services for low- income families, seniors and individuals special needs residing <br />in Southern California. JHC will provide revitalization and redevelopment of the blighted <br />communities in the Santa Ana and San Bernardino areas. Through their Community <br />Development Initiative, they will rehabilitate foreclosed homes for affordable resale and <br />develop quality multifamily rental properties. In San Bernardino, JHC will target and <br />acquire 24 single family homes. JHC will rehab the properties, and then sell them to low - <br />income families as covenant restricted affordable housing. An agreement is in place with <br />NHS Inland Empire to provide Homebuyer Education. Families may reside in one of the <br />affordable housing developments owned by JHC, be community residents or be enrolled <br />in a homebuyer education program. In Santa Aria, JHC will identify and acquire 20 single <br />family homes from the bank's REO inventory as well as one multi- family housing <br />development that will consist of 20 to 40 housing units. The organization self reports that <br />100% of those who will benefit from this initiative are low- or moderate - income. <br />Community Development Lending <br />J.W. Morgan has distinguished itself as a national leader in community development lending. <br />The bank provides financing for affordable housing and economic development projects in <br />low- and moderate - income communities. For example, in January 2010, J.P. Morgan <br />originated a $500,000 loam for M David Breaux apartments. The M David Breaux apartment <br />complex is comprised of 10 units, and is located in a low - income community in Santa Ana. <br />Loan proceeds were used for the acquisition of the property and all of the units are affordable <br />to low and moderate- income families. By providing financing, we are helping to preserve the <br />availability of affordable housing for low- and moderate - income households. <br />Community Development Services <br />The Homeownership Preservation Office (HPO) is a department within J.P. Morgan that <br />provides a central point of contact for legal aid groups and affordable housing advocates to <br />work with Chase Home Finance, the bank's mortgage affiliate, to address specific issues to <br />help sustain homeownership. This department was established in July 2004 and provides <br />services, including: (1) Helping victims of fraud or other abusive mortgage practices; (2) <br />Restructuring mortgages to help keep victims in their homes; (3) Selling or donating other <br />real estate property to minimize community impact; and (4) Providing loss mitigation <br />seminars to community groups to help them work with clients in mortgage default. <br />Page 65 <br />
