Dear Chainnan Mollohan:

I am requesting funding for the Covenant House Georgia Rights of Passage Transitional
Living Program in fiscal year 2010.

The entity to receive funding for this project is Covenant House Georgia located at 2488
Lakewood Avenue, SW, Atlanta, GA, 30315.

The funding would be used to support to expand programs that target an underserved
population, that of young people who are "aging out" of foster and residential care,
homeless youth, and others who are at risk of homelessness.

I certify that neither I nor my spouse has any financial interest in this project.

Sincerely,

o Lewis
ember of Congress
