Dear Fellow Employees:
Each year, I write a letter asking for your support of United Way. I ask because I believe United Way is
one of the best resources we have here in our community.
I can happily report that each year we've outdone ourselves in our generosity, and this year was no
exception. You and I both know there will always be people who need a helping hand or a gentle word of
encouragement. Your generous support of United Way ensures that someone will be there to lend that
support.
Once again, I extend my warmest thanks to you for taking the time to care. I'm proud and honored to work
with caring people like you.
