Sept.-Oct., 1973
UNITED FUND . . .
THANKS TO YOU ITS WORKING
. . . And it will be working better than
hoped for in 1974 due to the generosity of
plant employees who gave $25,826.17 to
the United Fund. We passed our $24,500
campaign goal by $1326.
Congratulations to each employee who
gave and to the 70 group solicitors who of
fered their services in carrying out the me
chanics of the drive.
Don Bellefeuil, Chairman of the 1973-74
UF Drive, commented, “It was a good cam
paign based on the total amount received.
Thanks to all the contributors and the so
licitors for all the work they did. My biggest
disappointment was the 20% who didn't
choose to give.”
There were 167 Fair Share givers (one
hours pay per month). This is a twofold
increase over last year. Twenty groups had
100% participation.
The average pledge per contributor was
$31.04. The Company contribution was
$4,900 or$4.75 per employee.
The Company gift will go to Transyl
vania, Henderson, and Buncombe Counties
based on percentage employees in each
county. Employee contributions go to
county funds of their choice.
