United Way sets goal of $2.6 million
The Cleveland County United Way will
attempt to raise $2,635,000 during its annual
campaign. This is $2,432 more than was
pledged at the end of last year’s campaign.
“This is only a slight increase because we
need to be sensitive to the reality of our
local economic outlook. It is an unfortunate
fact that in these times of economic chal-
lenge our friends, families and neighbors
need our help more now than ever,” said Dr.
Gene Moore, Cleveleand County Schools
superintendent and chair of the 2003 cam-
paign.
When the economy is down, the needs are
even greater, according to David Dear, the
United Way’s Community Impact
Committee chair.
“That is why it is essential that we all step
up this year. If enough folks believe in the
concept of neighbor helping neighbor, right
here at home, the campaign will be success-
ful.”
The campaign will officially kick off Sept.
23 when the results of the early Pacesetter
Campaign will be announced. A dozen
organizations are currently conducting cam-
paigns in advance of the kick off. They hope
to establish significant momentum in the
campaign’s early stages.
