Appreciation Luncheon

 

The 2011 Employee Campaign Manager (ECM) Appreciation Luncheon was hosted by Carrabba's Italian Grill and sponsored by Heritage Farms Dairy, Inc. 

 

 

Door prizes were provided by B. McNeel's, Maple Street Grill, Smutherman's Antiques, Bella's Boutique, Trendy Pieces, and Marina's on the Square.  Gigi's Cupcakes donated cupcakes for all of the ECMs. 

 

Employee Campaign Managers organize, plan, and carry out United Way campaigns at their respective companies.  United Way would not be a success without these volunteers, and United Way is grateful for their support!

Loaned Executives Needed for 2011 

 

The United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties is now seeking Loaned Executives for fall 2011. A Loaned Executive is a volunteer or appointed employee who will assist United Way during the campaign months on either a part-time or full-time basis.

 

The success of United Way is not possible without the support from volunteers within the community, such as Loaned Executives. With the support of Loaned Executives, United Way is able to keep overhead costs low, allowing a higher percentage of each donor's dollar to be invested back into the community.
