Rambosk Collier County Sheriffs Office 3301 Tamiami Trl E Bldg J Naples, FL 34112-4902 Dear Sheriff Rambosk: I would like to request $1,000 for the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches from Collier County Law Enforcement Trust Funds. Over the past few years, the Youth Ranches has experienced a decrease in charitable gifts and closed five cottages in the spring of 2010. The Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches was founded by the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches in 1957 and has served over 115,000 at-risk children that call Florida home. The Youth Ranches mission is to prevent delinquency and develop strong, lawful, resilient and productive citizens who will make a positive contribution to our communities for years to come. The Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches is recognized as a charity as indicated under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Reopening the five cottages will change the lives of 50 more children. We look forward to helping each one of them meet their personal goals and become lawful, productive citizens. I would appreciate your consideration of this request. If we can provide any further information, please feel free to give me a call. Sincerely, I~~'~ Roger Bouchard President www.youthranches.org Packet Page -1245-
