mr. curtis berry and he says "my name is curtis berry and a case manager. i'm a manager of local three. i am here to ask your help in getting a 4% cost of doing business increase for the nonprofits in san francisco. we received an increase last year that equated to 1.9% and that was over the last five years while the cost of living has gone up 12% in that time. i am a native san franciscan and now had to move out of the city for affordable housing. my arrangements in the beginning were affordable and now rent and the cost of commute has increased not to mention food costs and child care and education costs have gone up as well. i feel enslaved not to enjoy time with my family because i had to get a second job. we're asking for fairness. the nonprofits can't provide service with the funding that we are receiving now. i am asking for the 4% increase for the nonprofits serving san francisco. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker please. >> i'm tammy. i'm with them and shanty asked me if i say something for them and i said i would. you know most businesses they get a cost of doing business
