Thanks for United Way fund drive
Letters to the Editor
To the editor:
Thank you to all participants in the 2009 United Way campaign. With your help, we raised $171,793, which is 82 percent of this year's goal.
Although some might consider anything short of the goal a failure, it is not. Considering the economic climate we are in and the uncertainty we all face each day, this campaign has been a tremendous success! With these contributions, the citizens of Jay County will benefit through the services of our 19 member agencies and other not-for-profit agencies who will receive special grants throughout 2010.
We would like to thank our campaign cabinet team. These are the persons who chaired or co-chaired the divisions of the campaign to solicit industries, small businesses, school corporation employees, retirees and students, individuals and other non-profit organizations throughout Jay County. They are: Commerce/Professional - Sam Racster and Troy Jacks; Industry - Jeff Bailey and Carl Ronald; Small Business - Cindy Denney and Emily Roberts; Direct Mail - Deb Tipton; Agriculture - Carl Walker; Service Organizations - Rogers and Janice Durham; Education - Dr. Tim Long and Heather Hedges; Government - Chief Matt Aker and Todd Penrod; and Healthcare - Joe Johnston. Thanks also to Laurette Horn, our Communications chairperson and Leadership Giving chairpersons John and Diane Coldren.
These chairpersons recruited many other volunteers to help them and we need to thank them as well.
This year's success was also due to this community's media outlets: The Commercial Review and WPGW/J-Country 101. The Commercial Review promoted the United Way campaign with insert wrappers and campaign coverage while WPGW dedicated radio time for announcing Small Business Blitz participants on October 16 and hosted the 2nd Annual United Way Radio Day on November 10.
A special thank you to both. Your dedication and commitment to the Jay County community is truly appreciated.
Finally, we would like to thank Jane Ann Runyon, the United Way Executive Director, for her hard work.
All of these things contributed to this year's campaign success.
Thank you again and continue to LIVE UNITED.

campaign co-chairs,
