TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: Richard J. Martinez, Executive Director
DATE: March 8, 1994
SUBJECT: REPORT ON THE 1993 COMBINED CHARITY CAMPAIGN
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ACCEPT this report on the results of the 1993 Contra Costa County
Combined Charity Campaign with pledges and donations totaling $214,507.00.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
"Celebrate Giving" was the theme for the 1993 Contra Costa County
Employees Combined Charity Campaign. County employees joined in this spirit and
through their generosity have made a difference for many residents of our community
by donating and pledging $214,507.00. During a troubled economic period in Contra
Costa County, the employees contributioA is only 1.74% less than was pledged the
previous year.
This success would not have been possible without the support of the Board
and the help of the partners in the Campaign; organized labor, Housing Authority
staff, and staff from the five federations who formed the working committee of the
'93 Combined Charity Campaign. Combined Health Appeal, Earth Share, Local Inde-
pendent Charities, The Progressive Way, and The United Way shared their expertise
with Housing Authority staff Candice Jayne, Anabell Leichter, Susan Smith, and
Gwendlyn White, and afforded County employees an opportunity to "Celebrate Giving".
