Organisation Plans Progress
With Sponsors Chosen In
Communities
Plans for the United Fund campaign in Clare county, to raise 1950
funds for 25 or more important health
and community service organizations
in one drive, are now underway, according to E. H. Morgan, county
chairman of the drive.
In addition to the 25 member agencies of the United Fund, the campaign
in this county also will raise money
for the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and
Salvation Army.
The United Campaign is a new idea
in fund raising. It extends to state
and national organizations the Community Chest principle of raising money in relation to demonstrated need
in a single campaign to save duplication of campaign expense and campaign organization,
Organized in 1947, the United Fund
has won the endorsement of the Farm
Bureau, Grange, businessmen and industry. In its first campaign, in the
spring of 1949, more than a million
dollars was raised for the agencies
taking part in the county campaigns.
Although February is the official campaign, date, a number of counties, including Clare, have decided to put on
their drive in October this year.
Art Damoth is chairman of the special gifts committee.
Guy Autry, of the Clare County
Boy Scouts financial committee, will
solicit all fraternal and business organizations in the city of Clare.
Phil Weaver, president of the Far-
well Chamber of Commerce, will be
chairman of the Farwell drive and will
be aided by members of the chamber
in sponsoring the drive there.
Mrs, Genevieve Mattonen is chairman of the drive at Lake Station and
will organize that community.
The Masonic Lodge and Order of
Eastern Star will sponsor .the drive ih
Harrison, choosing their own chairman and workers.
E. A. "Bud" Anderson and Kenneth
Bitter are co-chairmen for the city of
Clare.
Plans are being completed for opening the campaign in Clare county

HI era Organisation Plans Progress With Sponsors Chosen In Communities Plans for the United Fund campaign in Clare county, to raise 1950 funds for 25 or more important health and community service organizations in one drive, are now underway, according to E. H. Morgan, county chairman of the drive. In addition to the 25 member agencies of the United Fund, the campaign in this county also will raise money for the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and Salvation Army. The United Campaign is a new idea in fund raising. It extends to state and national organizations the Community Chest principle of raising money in relation to demonstrated need in a single campaign to save duplication of campaign expense and campaign organization, Organized in 1947, the United Fund has won the endorsement of the Farm Bureau, Grange, businessmen and industry. In its first campaign, in the spring of 1949, more than a million dollars was raised for the agencies taking part in the county campaigns. Although February is the official campaign, date, a number of counties, including Clare, have decided to put on their drive in October this year. Art Damoth is chairman of the special gifts committee. Guy Autry, of the Clare County Boy Scouts financial committee, will solicit all fraternal and business organizations in the city of Clare. Phil Weaver, president of the Far- well Chamber of Commerce, will be chairman of the Farwell drive and will be aided by members of the chamber in sponsoring the drive there. Mrs, Genevieve Mattonen is chairman of the drive at Lake Station and will organize that community. The Masonic Lodge and Order of Eastern Star will sponsor .the drive ih Harrison, choosing their own chairman and workers. E. A.
