United Way reaches one-third of- '94 goal By Jilian flarry More than $1 million hias been raised thus far in Whitby, Osh- awa and Clarington in order to help meet the United Way's cam- paignoal of $3.2 million. We re about where we'd like to be * ilht now » says Bob Howar d, United Way campaign director. «Right ,now, we are experienc- ing more wins than losses." Seeral companies have only just begun or are in the middle of their campaigns. "nTe funds that are raised in the'education division (including funds raised by students in high sehools) are extremely impor- tant,» hie notes. Direct mail donations have in- creased by 15 per cent, donations from foundations and national firms are up by eight per cent. "Provincial government camn- aýigs are about equal or a little higher than they were last year at this time,» says Howard. 'Mhe Whîtby Psychiatrie Hos- pital (now Whitby M entai Health Centre) is usually a great spon- sor, but due to the cutbacks and tepink slips that were given out te hospital employees, their donations have receded a little." The General Motors plant in Oshawa has its own donation plan, notes Howard. But GM employees as> well as workers at other conipanies are asking if they can make dona- tions on their GM credit card, in order to collect GM points. «Many pehv called our ofcs inquiring aboutths»ay Howard. «We accecpt credit cards of al kinds, so theres no problem put- ting a donation on a credit card in order te, donate plus get, GM points. 1 «All people have to do to make a donation o n credit isto cail our office at 436-7377, and well be happy to take the eaul.» . .......
