UNITED WAY EXCEEDS GOAL
A Message from your 2006 United
Way of Chaves County Campaign
Chairpersons
We are pleased to announce that a final
tally indicates we exceeded our goal
for this year’s United Way of Chaves
County campaign. We sincerely thank
each of you for your contribution of
time, resources and money in any way.
Your donations (whether large or small)
have and will make a difference in the
lives of many. There is no question
that the fifteen agencies of our United
Way would not be able to provide all of
the services they provide without your
valuable help.
It has been a great pleasure for us to
serve as your campaign co-chairpersons
this year. We enjoyed working with
you in any way from employee
presentations to our first United Way
telethon.
Once again, our motto for this year’s
campaign was, “What Matters”. We
know our fifteen agencies work each
and every day to assure that the best
care and information is available to
all who seek their assistance. They
provide the “basics” to those “at risk”
in our communities; and when a person
or a family is vulnerable or in crisis,
they may need the help of one or more
of our agencies to get back on their feet.
When you contribute to United Way, we
know you are saying that you believe
and care for what really matters
In closing, we would once again like
to express our heartfelt appreciation;
first of all to our United Way staff,
Executive Director Harvey Robertson
and Cora Ross; to the Board members
and Foundation for all of your efforts;
to our campaign leadership and to all
of our agencies, donors and volunteers
who have worked so diligently in
making this year’s campaign such
a success. We promise that we will
continue to work with you in the
future on “What Matters.”
Sincerely,
Anna Maria Matteucci
