51 any people believe that preparing for
a new century energizes a community. MThroughout its 57 years, Sara Lee has delighted in supporting cultural, charitable and community enrichment endeavors that help nurture our collective and individual body, mind and spirit.
The 1990s will be remembered prominently as the time when we readied our arts and civic organizations for the next century. Sara Lee is proud to have played a leading role in such community revitalization, and we are excited about the opportunities the future will bring.
