United Way offers faculty, staff charitable giving options - News

United Way offers faculty, staff charitable giving options - News: "Professor Kate Hanson has teamed her communications class with United Way of the Greater Seacoast for the first time in the organization's 10th annual fundraiser, targeting UNH faculty and staff, which begins on Monday, Oct. 22.
According to UNH Human Resources Co-Chair Marianne Fortescue, the campaign has suffered in the years following Hurricane Katrina. Fundraising has decreased from the $75,000 raised the year before Katrina hit to $50,000 raised last year.
Fortescue said that the involvement of the communications class makes this year different, because of its 'direct outreach.' She hoped 'that more people will have more access' to information about ways they can contribute."
