FOR A CHOSEN 500

1t has been rumored that during
the past winter needy families were
often given food by more than one
Community Chest Organization at the
same time.
We want you help in telling On
ahans the truth in this matter. These
are the facts:
Community Chest maintains the
Social Service Exchange which is a
confidential file Of the names and ad-
dresses of all persons who have
received or are receiving help. All
relief agencies whether in the Chest
or not use this exchange.
When someone makes application
to any agency for help a call to the
Exchange shows if any other organ
ization is already helping the family.
Thus duplication is avoided and
dollars made to 60 further.
Here is another thing that you
can help US with:
Some people have questioned Set
Elements, neighborhood centers and
organizations such as the Boy Scouts
being in the Chest at this time.
These people probably do not re-
lie that although more than $4,000
was cut from the budgets of these or
CARNATIONS last year, their work has
been greatly increased and they are
serving many more people than ever
before. Thousands Of men, women,
boys and girls find diversion. recre-
alton, and enjoyment in the activities
of different ones of these agencies.
This is a necessary investment in the
future security Of our community.
These organizations are proving
more important now than even be-
fore. IMAM DOES NOT LIVE BY
BREAD ALONE.
You may want further information
or you may have questions to ask.
