Percentage Received

Family Service received the
largest percentage of the
United Givers Fund in
Charlottesville, a grant of
$63.780. They are followed by
American Red Cross who
received $58.000.

The United Givers Fund is
an incorporation of all the
fund drives which were
formerly conducted in
Charlottesville. Any agency
wishing to receive money from
the Fund must submit an
in-depth study to prove need
for and proper use of the
money.

Family Service Inc. has 250
nationwide branch offices. The
Charlottesville branch dropped
out of the national
organization due to
disagreements. These conflicts
stemmed partly from the types
of personnel to be hired.
