HEART FUND
( Continued From Page 1)
Why does not the HEART FUND
drive participate in the local
community chul‘ united fund, or
one-time=-campaign?’’
“It 1s easy to understand what
prompts the question, There is
a great and growing competition
for the donation of time and ser
vices as well as money to an
increasing number of agencies.”’
“Many public spirited Ameri~
cans believe that the community
suffers when its citizens do not
have the opportunity to support
personally and to the extent they
desire those endeavors in which
they are interested,"’
‘‘Regardless of how much mon=
ey a United Fund raises, the Heart
Association receives only what
the United Budget Committee
thinks we should have, More
often than not, the amount weare
offered bears no relationship to
our goal for the county and is
determined not by the needs of
the Heart Association, but by the
needs of other organizations also
looking to the United Fund for
support, Because most of our
activities are state wide in na
ture and we have no local bud=
gets, we know from experience
that we cannot compete in a
United Fund Budget Committee
with organizations whose activi
ties are entirely local.”
“There are many people in
every community who have a
deep personal interest in heart,
There are many others who much
perfer to decide themselves
which organization they will sup=
port rather than leave this to a
budget committee of a United
Fund.””
“1t is generally true also that
several additional organizations
are brought into the United drive
after the first year. Unfortun
ately it does not follow that twice
as much money can be raised
after the first year, This sim
ply means that the same amount
usually has to be divided more
ways and each organization re=-
ceives correspondingly less.”’

health problem, heart disease,
Did you know that of the 202
Newton countians that died in
1963, 103 of these our loved
ones and neighbors, died of heart

“And It is because fighting
heart disease is our job, and for
this reason only, that the Board
of Directors of the American
Heart Association as well as of
the Georgia Heart Assoclation
decided several years ago that
under no circumstances could

This decision not to participate
in United Funds was not made
arbitrarily or capriciously but
was a conclusion reached after
trying to participate and finding
that our battle against heart dis
