as Co-Chairs for the United Way of F<
County's General Campaign It has been our
privilege to have served with so many
wonderful and dedicated volunteers across our
community, volunteers who have worked
incredibly hard to help their neighbors.
Because those volunteers have worked so
hard, and because this community truly cares
about helping our neighbors in need, we have
raised $9,759,885 so far this year. Over 100
employee campaigns are not yet complete, and
we're counting on them to add a lot to the total
campaign. The total amount raised in the 1993
campaign will be reported at United Way's
Annual Meeting and Campaign Awards
Ceremony on January 27, 1994.
The United Way of Forsyth County
supports 51 local health and human service
agencies, and continues to operate very
efficiently with 89 percent of each contributed
dollar going directly to support health and
human care services. Only 11 cents of each
contributed dollar is spent on administration
and fundraising That level compares very
favorably to the average overhead costs for
most local and national non-profits
organizations which often spend over 20 cents
of each contributed dollar to cover
administrative and fundraising costs.
United Way agencies' programs and
services make a positive difference in
individual lives. Greg Welch, the first boy to
live at the Serendipity House, says, "Living at
the Serendipity House showed me how to
trust someone. It gave me a second chance.
* Today. ?, I've got a good job and a great family.
I owe all that to the Serendipity House and to
United Way."
Those same programs and services also
increase the quality of life for all members of
the community, even for those who are not
direct recipients. Programs designed to provide
our youth with structured afterschool
alternatives to "hanging out," impact all
members of our community. Says Winston
Salem Police Chief George Sweat, The
programs and services offered by United Way
of Forsyth County agencies are making a
positive difference in crime in our
community. "
We and the United Way of Forsyth
County extend our sincere gratitude to all
members of the community who have made a
commitment to this year's campaign, and to the
hundreds of volunteers who are still working
on this campaign. We also urge those who
have not made a commitment this year to do so
now.
The success of this year's campaign
continues to depend upon community members
to give generously of their time and financial
resources... to be Neighbors Helping Neighbors.
They, and they alone, are the key to the United
Way accomplishing its mission of increasing
the organized capacity of people to care for one
another.
Anyone with questions regarding the
United Way of Forsyth County, or in need of
assistance, should call the United Way at 910
723-3601.
Sincerely,
Qt
Pat Brown Hal Brown
