For A Happier Community
Once again, Fieldcresters will be given an opportunity to expr^s
their concern for the less fortunate by pledging a contribution to the
United Fund in their area. The campaigns for funds to assist the young
and old, the sick and distressed, will be held at varying periods in
October.
The annual appeal combining the needs of a number of community
organizations in one campaign offers a bargain to each of us. By
pledging a single contribution we can help all of the agencies and
eliminate the need for a succession of individual drives such as we
experienced prior to the days of United Giving.
At Fieldcrest Mills, our gift may be in the form of a pledge which
may be paid conveniently in small installments through payroll de
ductions. And, for the first time this year, it will not be necessary to
contact all employees, since large numbers of Fieldcresters signed
up last year for continuing deductions. These employees, of course,
will not be solicited in this year’s campaigns.
For others it will be just a matter of signing a new pledge card ex
tending the present deductions for another year or on a continuing
basis. Those who did not pledge a contribution last year need only to
sign up for small deductions amounting to about the price of a pack
of cigarettes a week.
Employees of Fieldcrest Mills can help assure the success of the
campaign in their areas if all of us contribute our fair share. Large
numbers of Fieldcresters have been contributing the established fair
share amount for several years. Persons in the community outside of
Fieldcrest are asked to give on the same basis.
How about you? If you are not now contributing to the Community
Fund, United Fund, United Givers, or whatever the program is called,
won’t you pledge your fair share in this year’s campaign?
When you do, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that you
have joined with your friends, neighbors and fellow workers in
taking care of the human needs and obligations in your locality. Your
unselfish gift will help to make your community a happier place; it
will make you a happier person.
