UNITED WAY UPDATE
As chairman of this year's College campaign for the 1981 United Way Appeal, I wish to thank everyone who has contributed to this unique effort. Your generosity has been tremendous!
The results of our effort are not yet known at this time, since not all contributions have been collected, However, I do know that the response thus far has been exceptionally good, both in terms of average contribution and percentage of individuals participating.
Overall, United Way officials are extremely pleased to see that despite feeling the financial pinch, individual giving is up in all categories, and over 42 per cent of the 1981 goal of $12,020,475. has been reached in Rhode Island. For those of you who are still planning to contribute, please give generously. After all, the campaign is only as successful as you make it, Contributions will be accepted through Friday, October 30, so don't delay in contacting your solicitor. Let's make it another award winning year for Salve Regina!!
