United Way of the Virginias
2001 Campaign

Odyssey is defined by the dictionary as "an intellectual or spiritual wandering or quest." It is of course, associated with the epic poem of the same name attributed to Homer recounting the long wanderings of Odysseus. In the 2001 campaign for United Way, we have a quest. It is vital to the well-being of thousands of our neighbors in Mercer, Tazewell and Bland counties. It is vital that we are successful in our fundraising quest for the health and human care agencies that serve our neighbors in need. Proverbs exhorts us: "Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, come back later: I'll give it tomorrow - when you have it with you." It is in your power to act. Don't wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow is too late for many children and for many families. Listen to your heart and to your conscience. Act today. Be part of the quest to help others. Give! Sincerely,
Mrs. Charles M. Sacre, III (Charlotte)
